Hi Ralph.
Our sponsors should be able to help with the manual. Or there are several firms on the www THAT SHOULD BE ABLE TO HELP.
I assume that the tractor was running ok before? Have you done any other work on it before this problem started?
The out lets at the top of the fuel pipes are the injectors are they clean or has any work been done on these doyou use any injector cleaner when she is in running order a good idea to do this every few weeks this will keep them clean automatically.
If this is a hobby tractor.
Have you changed the fuel filter lately probably a good idea to do this ounce a year.

Do you get fuel at the injector pump outlets were the pipes connect if not then there could be a problem with the pump.
Some injector pumps have 2 bleed screws. – The system should be bled in this order.

PRIMARY PUMP--FUEL FILTER—INLET TO THE INJECTOR PUMP—BLEED SCREW ON PUMP ---- OUTLETS ON PUMP – TOP ENDS OF INJ PIPES.
AFTER TESTING EACH POINT RETIGHTENS NUT AND MOVE ON TO THE NEXT.
