I went to start the dozer after sitting in the barn for over two years. After connecting batteries, tried to start, but would not fire eventhough the engine would turn over normally. After several more time, I infected a small amount of starting fluid into intake and attempted once more. It came to life for a second or two but soon died. I did notice that the sound of the engine did not some normal, had a tinnish sound comeing from the engine?? I then rechecked to engine oil and noticed nothing unusual - thought I might have a blown head gasket, but no water in oil. A neighbor though that the diesel may have water condensate which might cause this noise?? I checked the fuel filter and confirmed that fuel was being delivered to the injector pump from the primary pump by loosening the fitting on the input line to injector pump and then activating the priming lever on right side of engine.What should I attempt next?? Thanks for your input.
