hey guys i have a 441 mustang (well omc owatonna) it has a perkins 4.108 (4 cylinder diesel) in it. well the skid steer was sitting long time before i got it. so when first got it the starter just clicked. well after while got it to crank over but you really gotta mess with the key clicking it over back and forth. the starter will just click sometimes louder then others... but after playing around for while it will turn engine over. i need to get that fixed. also i cannot get skid steer to run. can get it turning over and to the point where it will try to start my kicking over band smoke coming out of exhaust but never can get it running. i have e electric fuel pump on it. i am getting plenty of fuel to the injection pump. i do see the motor has glowplugs in it. but i don't know if they are any good. is there any way to test them? also where can you get glowplugs for it? i have a parts manual and operators manual for it. but the parts manual don't go into detail on the engine components or anything. Any help is very appreciated. I bled the injection pump and then after getting fuel to injection pump i cracked the lines going to injectors until fuel started coming out of them. then tightened them. still no fire. like i said it will kick over trying to start but not fully running yet. Please help me out! I would like to get this thing up and running so i can use it but cant find many resources for these skid steers. i cant even find much at all about the engines either.
