Tractor Repair: MF fuel problems, hometown aol, mf135


Question
Hi Big Dean,
I have a MF135 that keeps surging and cutting out. I have changed the fuel filter and air bled the system, it runs a while but cuts out again. I have to air bleed the system to get it started. What should I do next to correct the problem? Thanks, Jerome

Answer
Hi Jerome
  That problem could be caused by the transfer pump on the right side being bad they will sometimes pump good with the hand lever but the short stroke of the camshaft will not move enough fuel to keep up if this is your problem you will need to replace that pump. Other things that will cause this problem is a restriction some where between the tank & the transfer pump.
