How long does a 24 hp diesel engine run?
Diesel runs great for 1/2 hour then very low power. This has me baffled. I started my YM240 (24 hp diesel) this spring and it runs absolutely fine for about 1/2 hour – plenty of power under load, no smoke, no blowby, everything seems normal.
Why does my diesel engine run so long?
If the fuel valve/outlet has a strainer, it might be clogged. If it doesn’t, the outlet opening might be clogged. In either case, the engine gets enough fuel to run for awhile, then is starved for fuel. Stop the tractor for 15-30 minutes, it starts and runs fine until it is starved again.
Why does my Stihl MS181 idle but not Rev?
However, it will not rev up. Pull the throttle and it bogs and dies. I have tried all the basics, gas, fuel filter, fuel, plug, carb, air filter, hoses…. Plug is new and looks great and appears to be burning clean and properly. If I cover the carb air inlet with my thumb and throttle up it will pick up RPM’s and rev up and run OK but not well.
How long does a ym240 diesel engine run?
I started my YM240 (24 hp diesel) this spring and it runs absolutely fine for about 1/2 hour – plenty of power under load, no smoke, no blowby, everything seems normal. Then, after about 1/2 hour it starts losing power and in a period of about 3-4 minutes it loses so much power that it can’t climb a small grade unless I drop it into 1st gear.
