I have a 1966 IH 806 diesel that will not start/run. A couple of weeks ago, I found the fuel line between the primary and secondary fuel filters was leaking. I replaced the hose and both fuel filters. The tractor ran good before I replaced the hose and filters. After bleeding the fuel system, the tractor ran fine for a little while but then it died. I found that the hose I replaced between the filters had kinked and collapsed. I corrected that problem and tried to bleed the fuel system again. However, now the tractor will not start and run. An IH mechanic told me to crack the steel fuel lines at all six injectors. I did this but the engine still won"t start/run. When I crank the starter, with the fuel lines cracked at the injectors, no fuel comes out. Is is likely my diesel pump needs to be rebuilt? I"m wondering if the collapsed fuel line damaged the pump. The IH mechanic told me it would cost $800 plus for him to rebuild the pump. I would like to be sure that is the problem before I take it off.
