Ford 5000 Diesel Tractor: Fuel delivery issues, won't start 

Where the kill cable attaches to the pump there is a button. It's the excess fuel button. Open the throttle lever wide open and push that button in! Then try to start the tractor. Pushing in that button will deliver more fuel to the engine and help purge the air out faster.

Ha Steve I've always bleed the injectors there is air between the pump and the injectors. Just raise the hood fold the battery tray out have one of the boys crank it while you crack the feed lines at the first injector tell fuel drips out move on to the next inline and so forth. It will start if the injector pump is pumping fuel. The reason why alot of us roll or pull start tractors is to not damage the starter . Your doing well Steve just hang in there and thanks for the video. Enjoy old tractors coming back to life

I want to thank you for this video. I had the same problem with the pump being upside down. It was pushing air into the tank, so I did just like you and reversed the pump and voila. Bled the line and she started right after that.

I really enjoyed this video! Good job.

Steve Great class on this deseil engine.

Thanks for the tips. I never knew high pressure would cause that kind of injury.. I never worked on diesel engines. Only gas

i like this tractor Ford 5000 its my favourite machine good luck

Open hood swing battery out and injector lines are right there sir

Great video i love watching the trouble shooting process in real time , im having to run down a culprit on my tractor with similar issues. I worked my tillar for about an hour and then all the sudden it acts like its fuel starved and now it wont run. I changed all the filters and drained both tanks and still cant figure out what the problem is.

Dude, open the hood, release the wing nut on the battery box, swing box outta the way and access to injectors is right there.

Is there any special way to put the lift pump in or does it just slide straight in? Also, did you have any issues with the oil leaking from bottom of lift pump after install?

little bit of starting fluid and she'd probably fire right up. It's cold and is getting some air. just needs a little help.

What if theres now desiel comeing out of injectors when you crack them

Oil in pump should be changed every engine oil change. The arrow was pointing to the "missing" banjo bolt when fitted with leak off pipe is also the breather

Never tow a Ford tractor with DUAL POWER. You’ll ruin the clutch packs and will end up splitting to rear to repair.

What did you end up finding

The fuel goes to the pump from the filter

Pump cam is under the pump cam so not working will not pump fuel

open the tank
