Tractor quit running

Posted by UFO Man on September 19, 2004 at 19:35:13 from (66.118.32.86):

Anybody got time for a real problem?

Anyway, I was out mowing today, it was hot, about 95, but cutting real fine. The ol' B 414 diesel ticking along, sounding just fine.

All at once, it picks up RPM for a few seconds and then slows back down. A minute later, it does it again only this time when it slows down, it just slowly quits running.

I bled the fuel lines, opened the air filter, still won't start. I'm hoping that this is just a clogged filter or something in the fuel tank blocking the flow of fuel, so I'll start there.

Radiator water is fine, no oil. Oil is fine, no water. Fuel smells like diesel.

Any ideas?
