I have an old 4010. It was running good with no real issues for a while now, then about 3 hours into some work it started to lose power and died on me. At that time I didn't have an opportunity to address the issue. I came back to it a few days later and noticed the fuel filters were not full. So I manually pumped the lift pump to fill the bottom, then the top filter, then cracked the supply to the injection pump and primed until all bubbles were removed. After a small bit of cranking it fires right up and ran for 20 mins before doing exactly the same thing from the first instance. It started to lose power and then died. I repeated the steps above and got it to run again, and again it started to lose power and died. I did this a few more times and always the same result. Yesterday I removed the fuel supply to the lift pump (plenty of unrestricted flow), removed the filters and blew through the ports, checked the return to tank line and that was clear. I'm at a loss at what it could be. Anyone have any recommendations I should investigate?
