Bill, Check the bottom of the fuel tank. Last summer I was checking the fuel level on the HD3 Allis dozer and there was a molasses like gunk at the bottom of the tank 1/2-3/4 inch deep. Removed and cleaned the metal tank with acetone.Then changed the filters.Tried to make it inject fuel into the injectors but the pump was also clogged with the brown gunk. Cleaned the pump using Seafoam turning over the pump with a variable speed drill and homemade extension to fit the pump. It took time but did get it done. Now I believe the gunk has gotten into the injectors and may have to remove them and clean. This all happened over 6 months because the HD3 is 170 miles away at my cabin. There is a algae additive out there at $35 a pop. Learned my lesson about fuel additives.Some claim it is due to additives to diesel that are causing problems.HTH

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
