[QUOTE="Jesse8167, post: 88553, member: 12721"] Hello, Just looking for some ideas on a ls170 that I just purchased; it was not running and had been sitting outside for about 2 years. A little run down on the machine, it is a 2000 New Holland ls170 with 1485hrs. The previous owner said and it needed a battery and starter. Someone tried steeling it so the ignition switch was gone and I bought it not knowing a whole lot about it. I started by putting a new ignition switch, starter, battery, seat safety wiring harness, starter relay and inner safety start relay (6 pin relay on left side of engine compartment panel). I did all that in steps as I diagnosed and traced the problem. Now after all that it turns over but still won't start. I checked the fuel shut valve and it is getting power. I think it is working because I can put my hand on it and feel it engage when the key is turned on. I cracked the injector lines and they're all getting fuel. Pulled the four glow plugs and bench tested them and they all turned red hot in about 6 seconds. The next thing I did was a compression test, and they were 250 275 250 400 psi... but I have no idea what the compression should be. If anyone has any suggestions they will be greatly appreciated because I've been beating my head against the wall. [/QUOTE]
