It has been a few years since I worked on a 354D but is yours the British built 154 CU In Diesel with a CAV injector pump ? Do a quick check on the fuel shut off rod on top of the injector pump that it is functioning properly. Had the key come out one time and it stayed in the shut off position. Sounds like a fuel problem to me. First of all check for clogged fuel filters. Replace them if necessary. Then you will have to bleed the fuel system to get the air out. There is a hand pump on the fuel pump on the side of the engine block to manually pump fuel through the system. First you have to get the air out of the fuel filters, there is a bleed screw on top of the filter, open it and pump the hand pump until air bubble free Diesel fuel comes out, then shut this bleed screw and repeat the process with the bleed screw(s) on the injector pump. I can't remember if this pump had a bleed screw on the primary and another on the secondary. Some of these tractors will start now but others require bleeding the injector lines. We had a B414D and a 434D which were indentical except for the skins. The B414D would start without bleeding the injector lines and the 434D you had to bleed at least 2 injector lines. BE CAREFUL THE DIESEL FUEL FROM THE INJECTOR PUMP IS UNDER HIGH PRESSURE. To bleed injector line, loosen one of the nuts on one of the injector feed lines out of the injector pump. Then crank the engine over with the starter and when fuel is sprayed out, tightent this nut and repeat for the other 3. If you do not get any fuel spraying, either you didn't get your fuel system bled properly or inject pump is not working. Good luck JB
