Should not be a mechanical problem, it sounds fuel related. Your fuel system has a leak, or the electric fuel pump is bad, or the check valve in the pump is bad. It's not related to the fuel pickup in the tank being clogged. That would take a longer time to cut off the fuel supply. How often...
Relays shot.
EDIT: Also try and run a wire from ground to the X2. If the ground path is not whole, then the relay cant work. But I think the relay is shot.
K2 has 4 terminals. Two big, two small. The small ones are X1 and X2. The large ones are A1 and A2.
On X1 should be two wires, 114C and 114B. On X2 there should be one wire, 100J. The X2 wire goes to ground. The X1 wires go to S10, (Wire 114C) and P6-20, (for the start circuit from S1)
A1...
K2 is not a solenoid. Its a relay. L4 is the starter solenoid. Completely different. To test K2, simply try and start the set. Measure for 24 VDC at X1 terminal. L4 and B1, (mounted to one another, are your starter)
Thats K18, the preheat relay. You need to find K2 relay, and see if its getting voltage when you turn S1 into the start position. Or S10, in the crank position.
I hope the new starter solves the problem. But like I posted before, if you can not start the set with the S1, not turn it over with the S10, that points first to the K2 relay. If you haven't checked ans tested K2, and the wires that belong to those circuits, your new starter may not fixed the...
