Welp, I had a similair experience with my 584. The filters needed replacing and it was not getting fuel. I traced all lines and found the line that comes around the front of the tractor had an air leak. Now it is hard to believe but a line can allow air to suck in even though it does not leak fuel out. Make sure all lines are good and all connections are tight. I also poured some alcohol into the fuel tank to kill any bacteria masses that were in the tank or lines..some of that black gunk you mention could be bacteria mass. I undid lines and blew them out from the tank right up to the filter. The filters I use have a petcock on the bottom of them that let off water and the "gugnk" you mentioned. I am guessing here but you could have a line plugged somewhere from this Guck you mentioned. As the other poster said open your lines at the injectors and you should get fuel there. I guess it took me some years to realize that bacteria can grow in Diesel fuel and only if there is moisture..so methyl alcohol will clean that up. I use a product called three in one diesel conditioner. It lubes the pump, removes moisture and cleans injectors. I know I messed around for three or more hours before I got things running smoothly..replaced a line, replaced filters,added alcohol and blew lines out..tractor has been perfect ever since. I guess the lesson for today is to drain filters daily and replace filters per schedule. Good luck, I hope you get the tractor purring tomorrow. Just another thought..when you replaced your filters did you fill them with clean fuel before screwing them on...I've had to do that to get the system primed..
