Looking for some help with my John Deere L130. Saw a forum topic on pluse fuel pumps here from 2013 and seems there are some experts on the forum.
I have an older JD with a twin Kohler motor. It's been running fine for the 4-5 years I've had it until a week ago. While mowing some undeveloped acres on a lake lot the engine just died out. I'd let it sit a few minutes then it would run again for a few minutes then die again. Runs great when cold, problem only happens when hot and running hard. I noticed the fuel filter was old & dirty so replaced it. But that didn't help. Yesterday noticed the new filter had no fuel in it when it died. I figured the pulse fuel pump had stopped working. Bought a new one and installed it, and when cranking it the fuel filter filled up immediately with gas and it ran fine. However in about 15 minutes it died again and filter was empty. Tried removing the gas tank cap to see if maybe it wasn't venting properly, but that didn't help. Once it cools down it will start again. Yesterday it was in the mid 70's while mowing.
Trailered it home and noticed the fuel filter was again filled with fuel and it started right up. Ran a compression test today have have 160 lbs in both cylinders. Any ideas on what's wrong or what other tests I can do?
