Hey my friend, you helped me immensely. Same issues, either gelled fuel or a blockage. Did the same procedures and she fired right up. Thank you for the help.
Video was very helpful. I suspect this is a short fix/identification of the problem and the real "fix" is to drain the tank, remove tank, and clean it out completely. Again this video was very helpful. Thanks.
@@jeffwhitnah7440 ,,,, yes you are correct. I made this video shortly after this one. I’ve had no problems since. ruclips.net/video/ydbySkEnMuQ/видео.htmlsi=sfY5rvU7DHy8dwFU
Greetings from Arkansas. I had exactly the same problem with my 2014 L3301 hydrostatic transmission. It first happened in 2019 or 2020. Once we realized we had some debris in the tank I wanted to just remove the tank for cleaning but that looked like too big of a problem. Siphoned the diesel out then taped a clear hose onto a shop vac and did my best to clean it out. Today, 9-27-24 it happened again. So frustrating, because I have been so careful to keep it clean. I wonder if there is some manufacturing issue that allows this to keep happening? Now I'm going to have to do the same cleaning project again. Not looking forward to that. Oh, noticed you were using farm (dyed) diesel. That is against manufacture recommendations in my year model 2014. Only use road diesel. Thanks for your video.
Could you have tried pushing a piece of wire up the line to dislodge the debris? Might have encouraged the junk to come down the line instead of blowing it back into the tank. Just a thought
What you should have done is blown air into the tank from the filler neck and pressurized the tank and forced the garbage out through the line. All you did is blow it back up into the tank and now it’s going to plug up again.
About a month after this video mine started dying now and then. I used some bailing wire to tie down the safety switch under the seat. It has not died again. So most of the time it’s clogged fuel or a faulty safety switch.
@@VideoByPatrick ,,,,no, there was lots of junk in the fuel tank . I made a different video about that. ruclips.net/video/ydbySkEnMuQ/видео.htmlsi=XXPFZM2DWHqQzgNc
Had the same issue , it turned out the fuel had a jell accumulation that was stopping up the fuel line. New tractor under warranty, dealer picked the tractor up 4 or 5 times and even came to our property so I could shoe him what was happening. I suspected from the start there was trash in the fuel tank, I was correct.
Same problem with a 6060. Removed fuel line at pump inlet and blew air back through water separator to tank . Cured the lack of fuel but will need to flush tank.obviously something in the tank, 200 hrs on machine

I ended up having to remove the tank and get the trash out.

Thank you sir! I think mine was just gelled fuel thankfully. I put in some treatment. If it stalls out again I'll start this process. @@gooutside6055

@@lhoward1563 ,,,, it came with the red fuel from the dealership

I should have watched your video on removing the fuel tank. That was ALOT of rust in there! Holy smokes!
Ya, it had a lot of junk in there

Yep, but I found that the trash in the tank was large rusty pieces of the fuel sending unit that were falling off. That’s a different video.
my brand new grandL3560 cab model keeps dying randomly .. 10 hours on it

Clogged fuel filter ?

@gooutside6055 oh ok, on my smaller BX2380 there were two fuel filters; both clogged.

@@loveistheanswer8137 ,,,,this is what in ended up doing.. ruclips.net/video/ydbySkEnMuQ/видео.htmlsi=sSin79yrfTsnLOUF
You went about it all wrong the sl8me is still there
I cleaned a ton of rust pieces out of the fuel tank and now it’s fine
Tractors don’t have mileage lol
Ya I messed up but I didn’t want to start over. It sure took a long time for someone to say something. I thought it would be immediate.
