I rented a 2670 case one spring and it would run good but at intermittent intervals it would die like it was starving for fuel. I changed the filters but still it would sometimes run a couple of hours then shut down or sometimes only a few minutes. Had good fuel flow at pump, cleaned the screen in the sediment bowl still had problems. Finally decided to change the charge pump. When I got it off I turned it over and found the problem. A bee had gotten down the line to the entrance to the pump, but couldn't get around the corner into the pump. Took the bee out and no more problems.
What made me finally decide to dig til I found the problem was a trip my friend, who was driving for me, and I took because the engine died. I had a farm that had 2 fields, one on top of the hill and another below the hill in some river bottoms. When you went from one to the other you could take a short cut and drop down a steep hill. It wasn't long, maybe 200 yards, but was VERY steep. you would have a hard time stopping a tractor once you started down. We decided to go that way, but just as the tractor went over the lip the engine died, so down we went without brakes or steering. The crab steer went to one side so we went down side ways. Gotta say we were a little panicked. Didn't dawn on me til I was down in the field and slowed a bit to just drop the disc to stop. LOL I never did take that short cut again.
