Left work at 11 and came home and checked fuel at the tank, runs out good, not there. Took lines loose from the primary pump and checked the fittings, looked good. Took the pump and check valve off, and drove to MF dealer ( 40 miles ) and had them look at it. Pump and fittings were all good, said it had to be in the line from tank to pump. They didn't have a new fuel line, so I stopped at Napa and got 16 foot of new fuel line and came home, took old line off, went back to the shop and ground off the pressed ends and then went back to the combine and put on the new line and hose clamped it tight. Bleed the lines, and it started and ran good. Finished filling hopper and came to the house and emptied it and went back to the field and cut about 4 rounds and it died again. Tried to bleed lines and got all air. Cracked the line from pump to filters and was geting fuel. Tightened every fitting on it again since it was hot and was able to tighten all of them a little bit. Bleed the lines again and got fuel and got it running. Came home and unloaded what I had in the hopper and quit for the night. Supposed to rain tonight or tomorrow, and I didn't want to get caught dead in the field in the dark again. I'll come home from work tomorrow and try to start it, if it starts, I think it's fixed, if not? Chris

It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
