I haven't done the injector thing yet, I was hoping it would just self-purge while running. I also didn't check the filter for fuel, but I don't know when it was last replaced, so I'm going to order one anyway, especially since I plan on running homebrew in this engine. I'm told they're very forgiving of fuel quality compared to some modern diesels.
The filter is under the hood on the left as you look at the engine, on the right in proper terms (pass side). The line is clear, but clouded with red from heat soak. Not sure if I could see fuel coming through it or not, honestly.
I will manually purge the injectors and swap filters the next time I get a chance, and use the filter bleed and a turkey baster to fill 'er up manually. It seems like each time I started it, I could get a few quick revs, then it would stop responding to throttle input at all, then it would eventually die.
I'm really hoping the governor in the pump isn't sticking from not having been run for so long...
Thanks for the suggestions, guys.. updates as I have the time.
