Hello again,
It has been a while since i have looked at the dexta. Had to go back to the UK due to unwell family members.
it wont start.
charged the battery to full. It is a new battery installed last spring.
The Dexta was left in the poly tunnel. It was a hot summer. The same diesel is sat in the tank. I have bled the fuel lines up to the minimec bolts. there seemed to be a lot of air in the fuel supply system.
When checking the fuel flow on the line to the fuel pump it was flowing freely with a stream of about 3 inches distance. diesel tank is about 1/3 to 1/2 full.
when pressing the starter lever i see white puffs coming out of the exhaust at the usual rhythmic pace.
the starter seems to be turning over quite heartily.
during the cold start procedure i usually hold the starter lever down for between 7-10 seconds then stop holding it down for fear of burning out the starter motor.
There is an old chap who is the grand father of a friend who know his way around old tractors so probably going to get him to look at it.
but before I do, any advice or things to try?
thanks in advance
