Hi,

I had huge problem with my MF 65 deisel pump.
So i changed the pump to an working one.

Still same problem, the pump doesn't send any fuel to my injectors.

The fuel comes to the pump, and i can bleed the bump as i should. But it doesn't go to neither one of the injectors. What can be the problem?

It drives me crazy.

with the first pump did you run it out of fuel? was tractor running and just stoped? was it setting and would not start? or did you change filtrs ?

Actually, i don't know.. The previous owner says he just parked the tractor. Then it was never used for about 2½ year. then i bought it.

So when i mensioned this for everyone, all said that the pump has stucked... yeah right..

I've removed the oil cap, and looked at the gear wich turns the pump and while running on the starter it turns for sure..

I'm going to try to remove the injectors, and insert som diesel fuel and remount the injectors to see if it wants to fire. maybe then it will work?, i dunno.

out of ideas and starting to hate that tractor. hehe..

but i will never let the tractor win

doing that will do no good. YOU HAVE STILL NOT SAID WHY YOU CHANGED THE PUMP OR THE REASON FOR THE CHANGE WHAT DID THE TRACTOR DO THAT MADE YOU CHANGE IT ????? ?. just because the gears are turning don't mean that the cam is. you HAVE TO tell us more about what the tractor was doing before change. the pumps don't just stop working for no reason!!!

I changed the pump, since the first pump gaved me the exactly same problem.

So i've contacted several dealers, repair guys and all said that it was the pump..

Thats why i bought a new pump, this pump works for 100% sure, becouse i took it off an working engine..

I've seen the gears turning and also the pump, becouse if you look at the little gear that comes from the pump with 3 holes in it for each bult you can see it turns, also if you touch the pump you can feel it "working" when you run the starter.

On the old pump i also opened the big hatch/plate front of the pump, to see the wheel inside turn ( the weel with the Letters G, B etc).

One thing is wierd, wich i remember now.
When i dismounted the old pump and remounted the newer one, i discovered that the small gear in front of the engine, where i fit the injector pump in, feeled a little bit loose, i could move it about 1cm up and down, so i needed to lift it about 1cm to be able to insert the injector pump.

And since it turns, i thought that was normal.
Maybe it's not, maybe i need to dismount the whole front of the engine?.. Lots of work :(

Hi

You may remove the pump and turn the engine with the starter and look if the pump coupling flange is turning....if not timing gears may be stripped.


Just my 2¢

Hi!

I changed the pump becouse i "thought" the old one was broken, since we bleeded the system for air 10-20 times, but still no fuel to injectors.

everyone keeps telling me that the pump was broken. Ok, fine i can accept 400$ if a new pump will make it work..

Well, it didnt!!.

Ofcourse the pump is remounted with same markings and times as the old one was, even this there should come a little fuel to injectors i belive.

you still have air in the pump!! crack the lines going to the injectors and turn over {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{DO NOT USE EATHER}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} to run the engine. if you know you have a good pump it will run

No fuel to injectors sounds like a bad pump. Will tractor start with starting fluid? If it does you should loosen all deisel lines at the injectors, start it with the starting fluid and run it to see if any deisel comes out. May just have air still in the lines. Are the timing marks lined up?

Hi Ron.

Yes, it sounds like a broken pump, thats why i bought a new one, that worked!. Still same problem.

What you mean with start the engine with starting fluid?, i mean, i can't get any fluid to the injectors, how should i then be able to start it with starting fluid?,

or you mean ether, that i sprays into the airintake?.. but that is not healthy for the engine..

Timing marks, you mean on the pump?. not sure what you mean here.

Thankyou!

Hello AndreasH,
I am with Marlowe on that. do NOT use ether.
IF the timing was out for example by slackening the injector pipes at the injectors you should have fuel spurts coming through even if they are not in the correct place.
I would like to start from scratch again. Have you changed the fuel filters? If so are all the sealing rings fitted correctly? Have you removed the tap from the tank and checked the strainer on the tap? If your tractor is fitted with a lift pump with a glass bowl, have you cleaned this out as well as the strainer above the bowl. If it does not have a glass bowl remove the pipe from the OUTLET side of the lift pump and operate the pump by hand or turn the engine over briefly. You should have a good flow of fuel. There are vent screws on top of the filter bodies (assuming you have two filters fitted) may only be one vent if air can pass to the higher filter. Operate the lift pump again until you have a good flow from one or both vents. Slacken the bleed screws on the main pump and operate the LP. You should have anything between a good trickle and a jet (stand back). Slacken all of the injector nuts at the injectors and turn the engine over. If should be no more than a few seconds before you see evidence of fuel at the pipes. Tighten them and the engine should start. You will hear the pump 'clicking' as it comes to life. If this does not work, remove the small plate in front of the pump and ensure that the pump is turning when the engine turns. Do NOT pour any diesel into the injector port. Firstly it will not ignite because it has not been vapourised and secondly if you pour too much in there is a danger of the engine 'hydraulicing. This occurs when there is more fuel or water ontop of the piston at top-dead-centre than there is room for. It usually results in a bent con rod. Please let me know how you get on.

Hi DavidP.

Yes, i've changed the fuel filters, and everything is fitted correctly.

The tractor is fitted with a lift pump, i've changed the packing into it.

Yes, if i lift it by hand it comes a good trickle almost a jet from the injector pump.

I have not removed the tap from the tank and checked the strainer, i will do that tomorrow, thought it couldn't be that since the liftpump works perfect when pumping by hand.

Okay, so i should no more try to insert some fuel into the injectors then. and don't try ether.

I dunno what to try anymore.

I have also removed the small plate/oil refill lid and verified that the pump do turn when running the starter.

1. I have the original instruktion manual
2. I have the original workshop manual
Doing the bleeding just acoording to the instructions, wich doesn't help.

Just lost so much money on this tractor so i think i will put it out for sale today.
it's sad..

Thankyou anyway for the tips, i appreciate very much.

/Andreas

Okay, so i

Hello AndreasH,
Just one thing that you did not mention. Have you opened the vent screw/screws on the fuel filter?
With a new/reconditioned pump and fuel reaching the pump there is no reason why it should not pump. Check all fuel pipes, connections and fittings for any chafing, damage or non-sealing.
Good luck
DavidP

Hi David!

Yep, i've tried everything, also opened the screws on both filters, to bleed them. And only clear diesel comes nowon.

everything is checked, and fuel reaches the pump.
havn't checked the fuel tap on the tank yet, i'll do that today. Still sounds wierd , i mean when the fuel reaches the pump.

Thanx!

/Andreas

HI,

Just a thought and assuming it is a Bosch type pump - what position is the furel rack in. I assume that you have put it in mid position or higher to try and start. This should turn the plungers so the pumps admit fuel. If in the off position extrem end of stroke, there will be no fuel passing through.

Just a thought - try with the fuel lever/throttle in the mid position.

HTH

Hi John,
I am not aware of Bosch pumps being fitted to any MF tractors that have Perkins engines. Do any North American ones have Bosch pumps fitted? In the UK and Europe only CAV DPA type are fitted from the 4 cylinder MF 35 onwards.
Good Point.

Hi Dave,

Sorry, I was using the term Bosch loosely - meant that it was the inline barrels connected by common fuel rack. With the fuel rack in the off position - or out of proper adjustment, the fuel will never get pumped as the scroll passes the fuel. That was what I meant to say - and yes, you did pick up on what I was alluding to. Maybe there is a fuel shut off or extra lever somewhere. Just a shot in the dark that is all.

By the way, I enjoy reading your tips and what-to-do's - thanks.

J.

We have a 180 that I fought for an hour trying to get the air blead out. What I was shown was two bleeder screws on the pump. Once we open them up one at a time and got the air out of the pump. Getting a good shot of fuel through the tubes was easy. My 2 cents
