I am posting this on a few different forums, so if you have seen this already, please forgive the duplicate post.
I have a Zetor 5211 (1980's) that recently died in the middle of bushogging the pasture. It acted like it ran out of fuel, but it had over 1/2 a tank full. I had a mechanic come out and the fuel filter, fuel pump, and check valve were all replaced. The bowl is fine. I checked all of the hose clamps that I could see and they are all tight with no signs of leakage or air coming in. I also drained the tank and checked the pickup lines, and I saw no evidence of cracks or damage, or debris plugging them up. The fuel cap was also cleaned and I made sure that the vent holes were clear and the springs in the cap are working. When I prime the fuel system, it runs for about a minute and then dies.
The mechanic seems to have lost interest in troubleshooting any further. Is there anything else I should check, and are there any other connectors or things that should be looked at that I cannot see (hidden behind the engine, etc.)? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
