What happens here

The speaker introduces a circa 1986 or 1984 Massey Ferguson 240 tractor, which he has been using for about a year. He explains that he suspects water entered the tractor's injection pump because the fuel cap was left off, causing a fuel delivery problem. He points out the tractor's injection pump, the fuel filter, which also functions as a fuel-water separator, and the air filter. He notes that he has been working on or thinking about this tractor's issue for quite some time. It is crucial to understand that this video focuses entirely on a tractor's diesel fuel system and does not demonstrate any steps related to cleaning a generator's carburetor with carb cleaner.

Goal: Identify the tractor and its suspected fuel system issue

What they say

Hide

This is a circa 1986 or 84 Massie Ferguson 240 tractor. I've used this tractor on the farm for about a year. I got it for a good deal from a good friend of mine. His name's John. Great guy. Um, don't blame him one bit for the situation at hand here. Uh, what I do blame is potentially I left the fuel cap off of this tractor quite some time ago. And I think what happened, what had happened was the injection pump sucked water into it and then I let it sit. So I started it up and I moved it and it must have sucked water in. I don't know how you can suck water into an injection pump. And this is what it is. This is the injection pump. This is our fuel filter and fuel water separator. This is our air filter. I've been working on this tractor or scratching my head about this tractor for quite some
