Thanks in advance for any and all help. My 3600 w/ FEL has lost some power (quite a bit) suddenly. Used the tractor 2 weeks ago and it was fine, but went out last weekend and had reduced power. I recently changed air and fuel filters so I would not expect that to be an issue. Tractor starts well and sounds OK at slow idle, maybe has a little extra "puff" sound but only recognizable to me since I use it. Revs up to mid range, but at that point I can see that more exhaust is leaving than usual because the cap is standing wide open. As I continue to increase throttle it will not run any faster. Power is reduced to point it will barely haul a round bail up a slight incline, let alone the tractor by itself. What order to I need to be looking at things. My thoughts include fuel flow, possibly injectors, and maybe timing. Also wondering (because of the increased exhaust flow) if a valve could be stuck open causing a cylinder to act more like a compressor. Thanks Again, Kirk
