On a Diesel engine an injector problem would be more likely to cause a misfire issue. Also most often when an injector fails or plugs it is not intermittent. I would suppose that an operator could assess when this is happening especially on a 3 cylinder engine it would become very shaky and have a lot of vibration when misfiring. If what you are experiencing is more of just a sluggish response then as others have said this is likely a fuel supply issue. Also it could be drawing air in the fuel system. One way to check for this is to slightly pressurize the fuel tank with compressed air and see if any leaks show up. This should be done carefully only using a wadded up rag to seal around an air blower and fill neck. If the tank is real full you may want to drain or siphon it down a bit or you could get a fuel shower as the pressurized air can release quickly. Also hoses can breakdown internally and plug off inside but look fine on the outside. Injector cleaning is best left to a diesel shop with the proper flushing and testing equipment.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
