He did suggest doing all the injectors and I told him to dgo ahead and do it. He did seem honest so that's why I sent the machine with him to take care of. For future reference what type of a job is it to rebuild the injectors?

I called the dealer and the service manager stopped by to look at it and pick it up. He pulled the solenoid(electronic fuel shut off) off the pump and it started without a problem. He said I'd be able to just replace it and it would be fine(no charge). He states I'm getting some smoke from a bad...

After cracking the injectors, I don't have any fuel coming out of them. I have three wires going to the pump. When I turn the key one click, I have power to the red wire going to the pump. I have spoken to the dealer and he seems to think it's the pump. Has anyone ever pulled one of these onto a...

I pulled the injectors off and there isn't any fuel pumping in the cyclinders when I turn it over? A neighbor told me he's had diesel's that won't fire with ether sometimes. Any one else ever experience this?

I am not familiar with the engine stop control. Would that be something your machine has and mine doesn't? I thought at least with the ether It would at least start to fire, but agian it barely did that and a small puff of smoke came out.

The anti freeze level doesn't seem to have changed since I purchased it. The engine seems to turn over the same as it did in the past. I wasa thinking compression myself. A friend had stated the smoke could be the head gasket. Could that be the compression problem?

It turns over fast enough. It barely started to fire once with the ether.(I used more than enough) I ran it for about an hour, when it wouldn't start I thought I may have run the fuel down to low so I purged it. Still thought there may be air in it so I used the ether. The one time it started to...

It has a Kubota 23hp diesel engine.

I recently purchased a 553 F series with 1700 hours. The only problem I noticed is it would emit white smoke occassionally. I used it for about an hour yesterday, I turned it off for about an hour, started it for about 3-4 minutes, turned it off and now it won't start. It turns over but that's...
