[QUOTE="rcrail, post: 130039, member: 23897"] I tried bleeding the fuel system, my fuel filter is a little different set up that what’s pictured. There is a screw on the front of the fuel filter, I took it out and pumped the primer bulb until I got fresh clear fuel out, put the bolt back in. Opened the bleed knob on the engine that sits just after the low pressure pump and cranked engine, there was no start. If I cycle the glow plugs it acts like it wants to start but won’t. It does puff some smoke out the exhaust but not a lot. The machine ran strong prior to sitting for a month, doesn’t seem to be any blow by coming from vent tube. I think I’ve been into a little bit of everything in my life and never ran into anything I can’t fix but this diesel is kicking me all around the shop. Right now I’m all over the place mentally, is it getting no fuel or is the engine shot? Any suggestion where to start are appreciated. [/QUOTE]
