Long 2610DTC won t fire

My battery hold down came loose and shorted my battery. No I can t get it to fire! I checked fuses. What else should I be looking at?

Fried cables?

Didnt see any. Probably have to wash the engine down for better view. It cranks over with out a problem.

A test light will be the cheapest and simplest diagnostic tool.

Turn on the lights, accessories, anything to put a load on the electric
system, then start checking at the battery, systematically moving the clip
and probe on the light until you find where the power loss is.

Since the battery itself shorted, most likely the problem will be right at
the battery, a melted cable connection, could have even taken the battery
itself out. Not likely to be anything deeper into the electrical system.

Thanks! Lights haven t worked in 10 years. I know the batter is fine. Being it cranks over strong. I was thinking the relay fried?

As this is a 90s model I doubt it has a cable or
mechanical stop to shut off fuel to the injectors. If it
does have a cable you might take a look at it to see if
the short some how ran through the cable an is now
causing it to not function properly.

"93" it does have a mechanical pull to shut down diesel. I will check it. Thanks!

When you crank it over is there white smoke coming out the muffler? If not, there is no fuel getting to the injectors. If there is white smoke, there is not enough
heat to ignite the fuel. Long has a thermostarter on it. It is a small canister mounted to the firewall with a line dropping out the bottom to a glow plug on
intake manifold. You can remove the rubber air hose from the intake then activate the glow plug. Should have a fire flash in the manifold. I did have a problem
with a 610 starve for fuel one time. The problem was the banjo fitting behind the lift pump was clogged by a blade of grass and wouldn't let fuel through.

Thanks everyone, tried what everyone suggested and got it running. Most definitely was starving for fuel
