    New Holland LX885 fuel issues

    Final update. I have it running! I primed it by taking loose the return fuel line to the tank and plugging another hose into it and closing that hose off. I cracked open the line that feeds from the filter to the injection pump. I puffed air into the tank and forced fuel into the sediment...

    TVA - thanks for the discussion. I will have to check my setup, but the lower Pic I posted has an "A" and "B" that designated where the pump connections go. It appears to simply push and pull fuel through the sediment bowl tothe filter. The fuel line comes into the sediment collector and the...

    TVA and Thepumpguyssc - Thanks again for your continued help. In the parts manual pic below, some of the arrows on the filter show the in and out. I know the other day, I loosened the drain plug on the filter and pumped the hand pump. Fuel squirted out of the filter. I posted below pics from...

    I'm going to loosen up the bolt that holds the fuel filter in place and let the air escape from that point as a start.

    I'll take it loose from the upper point and blow through it tomorrow :). I was also wondering if it might be clogged or something.

    New Holland LX885 fuel issues

    It worked yesterday when there was fuel in the sediment bowl and filter. But now that they are empty, it doesn't want to pull fuel up from the tank. It does go down and come back up.

    Thanks. Will probably try that tomorrow. I previously blew up a swimming pool pump doing this, so hopefully I learned my lesson! :)

    New Holland LX885 fuel issues

    thepumpguyssc - I replaced the fuel filter and cleaned the sediment bowl. I first tested as you suggested, the 5/16 screw - no to very little fuel came out. I then tried cracking the injector lines open and the same thing, no fuel. I took the hose off the tank, placed one that I could blow...

    New Holland LX885 fuel issues

    I replaced the fuel filter and cleaned the sediment bowl out. Now I cannot get fuel to pump up through the system using the hand pump to prime it. Any ideas on this issue?

    New Holland LX885 fuel issues

    TVA - thanks, yes, I have the hand pump to prime it. On my diesel truck, I have a "lift pump" that ensures fuel is fed to the injector pump. On my truick, If the lift pump fails, the injector pump fails because the injector pump used the diesel as a lubricant to keep it oiled up. WIthout a...

    TVA - Do you know if the fuel tubes in the tank give problems? My brother has a JD and a Bobcat and both have had broken fuel tubes in the tank.

    New Holland LX885 fuel issues

    TVA - a stupid question. Where is the lift pump? It does not have the electric pump as shown in the parts manual and does not show anything on the hydraulic lift pump. Any ideas?
