743 Bobcat fuel issues

[Slave]

I pulled a 743 out of the woods it has a Kubota v1702 the fuel gets past the pump with the primer bulb and cranking with the fuel pump but not to the injectors even with the solid line to it completely removed. The fuel cutoff moves freely at the pump. The priming bulb moves fuel through the bypass back to the tank. any ideas?

Welcome better to post in the bobcat thread......and that( fuel cut off) the little wheel by the pump is a bleeder valve open to bleed then close......try that if your getting white smoke after that your getting fuel might have some crap in there from sitting

So you are getting fuel to the pump, but it's not getting to the tube lines when you crank the engine over?
If the machine has been sitting for some time, it is possible the fuel rack is stuck so no fuel is getting to the tube lines. If you remove the pump, you can ensure the rack is free to move.

the fuel cutoff is a lever on top of the injector pump with a cable back to a knob in the cab you pull to cutoff the fuel right?

The leaver on the pump will be forward to run and back for off once you shut it off return it to the run pos or it can get stuck
