Have U had this running, or did U just get it? Make sure U have Clean fuel and no water. If it was running and stalled, it should not be the Glo plugs. It sounds like it could be a loss of fuel or bad fuel. Phil
Disconnect the Metal lines and crank the Engine. fuel should spray out if pump is good!. Be sure U have plenty of fuel going to the pump First.do U have fuel comming out from the fuel filter?Good luck, Phil
RE: Re: Log Splitter behind a DEUCE!!

RE: Re: How to make a M911 do highway speeds?
The best way and least expensive way to get more speed is to add an Auxillary trans,LO, Direct,and OVERDRIVE. Adds to the rear of UR trans. But remember the steering may do FUNNY things at Higher speeds. Phil
U can get those at a General Motors dealer. There the same as 6.5 and the old GMC Thoro Flo diesels. I think I may have some hanging in my Garage, left over from a job I did last summer.
I often use Transmission oil in my diesels. I use Type F for a good Injector cleaner. This Turbo oil sounds like it is simuilar. Mix with diesel , maybe a couple quarts to a tank. It can't be too bad if they use it in Helis. Phil Just keep it CLEAN!!
supply and demand!
