And the winner is Tractor Vet. After changing the fuel line from tank to pump, it sat for 2 days and when I came home from work early Friday, I went to start it and it had lost it's prime. I bleed the lines and started it and went to cut beans, and it died after an hour or so. I cracked the sediment bowl loose to check for fuel and fuel ran out but the bowl was kind of dirty, so I took it off to clean it and the screen was plugged with black crap. I cleaned the screen and bleed it and started right up and ran the rest of the afternoon. This morning, I cleaned the screen and changed the fuel filters and went out to cut beans and it died 2 times and had to clean the black crap off the screen. Finished the beans so the next step is to drain the tank and clean it out. Should end the problem. I have a electric fuel pump I am going to add to the fuel line also. Thanks for all the suggestions.
