Tractor quit running update

Ok, y'all, this is an update on my tractor that quit running.

It's running again. If you remember, it revved up a couple of times and died. Most of you suggested that it was a clogged fuel line, and you were right.

Someone in this tractor's past redid the fuel lines so that the fuel line from the tank is plugged and the line is now coming from the bottom of the sediment bowl.

I got the banjo open and found a pine needle bundle in the fuel line. Lost about a gallon or two of diesel that I couldn't get to go into a bucket. Most of it went on me. Anyway, the fuel was coming out pretty good, so I just pulled the trash out and put the banjo back on.

Changed the fuel filter and primed it up. Started right up, mowed for an hour without incident.

One of these days I'm going to have to redo the fuel lines so they are in the right configuation under the tank.

Anyway, thanks for your help on this one, I appreciate it.
