I have a Gehl CTL 80 that was having electrical issues so I bypassed all the electronics and made a manual fuel stop solenoid that I can kill the machine with. Since this happened, I am having issues with starting my machine, however if I give it a shot of starting fluid and it will start right up.
This machine has a heater air instead of glow plugs. I was wondering if anyone could explain to me how a heater air works? Is it the same way glow plugs work?
I believe my electrical issue may not be allowing the heater air to heat up which is why the machine is not starting without starting fluid. I was thinking of hooking a battery cable to a starter solenoid from a tractor, to a push button in the cab back to the heater air to see if this would fix the problem.
Any help would be appreciated!
