A few days ago I went out to move hay to my horses and started the bobcat, it ran for a few seconds and shut off. My first thought was the fuel may have jelled since it was so cold. I tried the primer pump and just got a few spurts of fuel and some air. So I bought a new fuel filter and primer pump just in case. I changed the fuel filter and filled it with diesel before screwing it on and left the old primer pump on. It started right up and as soon as the fuel was out of the filter it died again. I pulled the primer pump and hooked up a short hose and tested to see if it was still working or whether it had a hole in it. It pumped fine. Next I pulled the hose off the fuel tank brass 90 and hooked up a new hose and the new primer pump and tried pumping straight out of the top of the tank but got nothing. Question: Can the grommet around the brass 90 leak air..? Question: there is another hose that comes off the top of the tank with a brass 90 and 3/8 rubber hose. It looks like it runs up under the engine. Is this a breather hose..? Question: I should be able to pump straight out off the brass 90 right..? I am stumped at this point... any help will be appreciated. Brian</p></blockquote><p></p>
