That wire looks nearly new. How did you get a new strand of wire caught on the drive shaft?
Good job fixing problem quickly! Many rear ends get burned plumb up when this happens.
Just my 2 cents but why did you put the 5 gallon of diesel in a can in the back instead of putting it in the tank. Never run a diesel engine out of fuel on anything. I would also suspect the starter brace. Who put the new starter on and what was wrong with the old one. If your starter is a new...
It sounds like your starter drive could still be engaged in the flywheel and didn't release when it started. This starter could possibly have been damaged with the run on and may need to be replaced again.

I use power service diesel kleen at recommended rates in summer and power service arctic formula in the winter time. The cetane boost is real and all my engines run quitter because of the added lubricity. They also start better in the winter time. It is good for the injectors too. Not only do I...
