: I recently purchased a MM tractor with a Roosemaster injection pump, The trouble I am having is that I get fuel gravity fed throught the filter to the pump, but no fuel at all comes through the pump when cranking. I loosen the injector lines at the pump and injectors and there is no fuel there. Yes, the pump is turning, and has fuel in it, but does not even spit any out. This tractor sat for approximately 3 years and ran fine when it was parked. I am afraid I am going to have to pull the pump and send it in. Any advice would be appreciated. Dave, if the tractor has been sitting up that long taking that Roosa-Master pump off and heading to a good diesel shop would probably be time well spent. The cap on the back of the pump where the gravity flow line attaches is the transfer pump which is supposed to supply fuel to the main high pressure part of the pump inside. You might get away with cleaning the screen in that inlet from the tank, and I would hope you could get off that light. The gentleman's suggestion about checking the fuel cut-off is not nearly so dumb as it might sound either. It does happen. Good luck and have a good day. John
