Hi, I recently bought a 1650 diesel tractor with direct injection that had just had the motor rebuilt. It has been sitting for a long time without doing much, and once it gets started it runs well. My problem is how to get it started. It doesn't seem to be getting the fuel to the engine until after you crank it for at least 10 sec or so it starts smoking ad then another 10 sec later it starts. Its warm out here right now (yes it does get warm up in Canada) around 20 deg. C so it should be starting at the turn of the key. Did anyone have any advise on how to get it fixed?? Would it be the fuel stop? Is there any way I can check if it is the fuel stop? I have injector cleaner in the fuel, doesn't seem to make much of a difference. I do have an electric fuel pump on it instead of the manual orignal one- it was replaced when it was rebuilt, could this have anything to do with it? Once it starts, it starts all of a sudden, no "half firing" and runs with smooth with a thin grey - white smoke that is hardly noticeable once it warms up. Sorry to have so much to say, I just want to make sure all of the specs are there... Thanks to all who respond, Paul (ONT)
