I"ve got a 4230 JD tractor, which I have been using to chisel CRP ground that I burnt off last week. The screens on the front got really plugged up good, and I noticed a lot of the tiny burnt ash around the fuel cap also. After I cleaned the screens and went back to work, the tractor started pulling down and died. I took the fuel line off at the pump and blew it out, put a new fuel filter on, got it primed and running again, went 2 rounds and it died again. Now I can"t get any fuel from the line at the pump until I blow it out again. My mechanic thinks I need to take the tank off and have it cleaned out by a radiator shop. My question is whether the burnt ash could be getting past the fuel cap into the fuel. I"ve got about 15 acres left to chisel and don"t want to go to the trouble and expense of getting the tank off and scoured out, only to have the same problem again once I go back to work. Any suggestions how to keep the ash out of the tank if you think that might be my problem? Thanks.
