I was receiving the above code (fuel in water). I stopped the machine, drained the water from the fuel filter, the machine started and ran, then let out a couple of black puffs of smoke and the engine quit. It's sitting in the middle of my driveway and won't start! At a minimum I'll need to tow the machine off my driveway. Can anyone provide advice on how to get this machine started? Many thanks, JW

Did it again show this code before it goes out? Are there any other active codes now? Does the engine spin? If there are no active coils, there is probably air in the fuel system. Remove the bolt from the top of the filter and pump until the air comes out without air, then tighten it. Then open the injector pump valve and pump for 10-15 seconds and close it. You probably put in the air in the fuel system by draining the fuel filter.
