    What is the thing I have circled in the photo attached? The motor has run good since it has been in stalled. Motor has been started I few time this year. Started it once and ran about 30 seconds then shut off. Only cranks over since then. Use either and it starts right up and runs no problem. Let it run for over an hour the other day and never skipped a beat. Went to start it today only cranks no start. Itā€™s a 24 volt system, I replaced the batteries, mechanical fuel pump, bled air out of all lines at the injectors.

    Causing the issue? Its called very bad connections caused by rust, corrosion, poor engine room up-keep, etc etc.. All needs to be taken apart and redone using good “Basic Electrical 101”.

    Solenoid– Look at the pictures– You have a very different Injection pump than the 6BTA’s you are referring to.

    Would that be causing the issues I am having?
