[QUOTE="imtools, post: 119263, member: 10415"] Mark I have exactly your machine (see my photo; restored 2005). My machine does not have the aforementioned fuel valve and I don't believe it ever did. The engine is shut by pulling the throttle lever all the way back which changes the variable displacement injection pump's output to zero. Are you sure it is partially forward? Probably not an issue at this time of year but starting when cold becomes real easy with 30 seconds of a heat gun blowing into manifold (temporarily disconnect air cleaner hose). You can verify fuel is making it to the injectors by slightly loosening the fuel line at injector and crank engine. And absolutely do NOT use starting fluid. When I restored my machine, I disassembled the machine 99%; everything but the injection pump; my manual didn't have an exploded view of it and since it worked, no point in disassembling. This means I know this machine quite literally inside and out. I also have a manual. Back in 2005, there were still a suprising amount of parts still available from Bobcat and somewhat reasonably priced too. [/QUOTE]
