Unfortunately, every tractor maker has different ideas on how to power all those circuits. Some like to tie a seat switch, neutral switch, park brake switch, PTO switch, and sometime more into the mix. It could be as simple as a bad fuse, but something doesn't want the tractor to run. An...

The one above the hydraulic pump looks promising. The three wires involved will be 1) ground 2) hot with starter 3) hot with key switch on. You might check that out.

Next time you go out there open the hood and look in the right front corner of the engine. There should be a fuel shut off solenoid on the radiator side of engine timing cover. Just in front of the injection pump. A cylinder looking thing about three inches long or so with wires and harness...

You can but I don't. I put the pump so it pulls straight from the tank. Hasn't hurt one yet.

Okay, I think we can rule out the timing for now and get back to fuel restriction. Your tractor will be particularly vulnerable to that due to where they put the fuel tank. One thing I learned early on is to replace the el cheapo fuel lines Mahindra uses. Simply cut through the crimp sleeves and...

Not necessarily. What you described is indeed a common symptom these injection pumps can (and will) exhibit under certain conditions of fuel starvation. Except for one thing. The fifteen minutes. Fuel restrictions don't come and go every fifteen minutes. Having seen this condition (and...

Should be only one plug. It's a manifold heater element, not a glow plug. The heater is not the problem, rather it's the control circuit for it.

The manifold heater should not be smoking whether in use or not, and certainly not be in play with engine stopped and key switch off. Must be a relay or something shorted out. You should remove the wire from the heater (and probably disconnect the battery as well) until you get it sorted out.

Logic doesn't enter into this. I have a friend with an M105P who found someone to do a delete. This guy had the tractor for like six months and charged about $3000 but he got it done and apparently the tractor runs a lot better now. As far as I know there have been no problems from the procedure.

Which shifter? Shuttle lever or speed change lever? If it's the speed change lever crawl under and look at the shift linkage from below. look for items 8 and 9 on this diagram. If that's all working properly you may have a sheared roll pin somewhere. That happens on occasion...

Absolutely. First confirm that the solenoid coil is grounded, then apply battery voltage to the start terminal (the spade or post the key switch start wire attaches to). A working solenoid will engage and the starter will crank the engine. Just hearing a click "somewhere" doesn't answer all the...

No wonder you have problems. The wiring situation could well be the reason the original solenoid went bad in the first place. Hitachi is a name brand machine, so can you find a proper wiring diagram to match the unit? Or have you already tried that route and come up empty? I've seen other...

'Gets real hot" using what? The machine's wiring or the battery jumper wire? If it has three wires (one being ground) then which of the other two pulls it in and which one holds it in? Only the hold circuit should be powered with key switch on. The other is more momentary, like when starter is...

I have zero experience with Kioti common rail systems, but I've heard from a few people with other brands that they have problems unless they keep the RPMs wound up all the time. While it makes for a certain amount of inconvenience sometimes, it's the only way they can keep their system clear of...

Not all tractors are created equal. On some models much of what goes on inside varies from one transmission version to another. In this case it looks like the PTO is driven through the engine clutch in both gear drive and hydrostatic transmissions, so your symptoms lean towards the clutch...

Don't know the model, but I would expect it has a serpentine belt with no adjustment. Just a spring loaded tensioner. If you get the belt routed properly no adjustment is needed.

Too many possibilities on that one. Yes, the pump timing can be a factor with that pump, but so can fuel supply. Looks like you have a low mounted fuel tank, no dedicated fuel lift pump, and Mahindra's (patented) fuel lines with sections of rubber fuel hose crimp sealed to sections of steel...

Some of the early tractors had no screen on the hydraulic pump, but I think the 65 does. If the standpipe O rings are good, I would go next to the screen. Drain the rear housing (probably needs that anyway) and remove the right side cover with PTO shift lever. Look inside for a tin cover about...

I would suggest you NOT fool with the "fuel injection system". That's not homeowner friendly, and most likely not part of the problem. If the engine dies as described it PROBABLY is from lack of fuel. What are you doing to get it going again? Are you finding air in the system AT the injection...

Just what in the world are you on about here? He's not fooling with any hoses or connections.
