John Deere LT155 Engine Problem
John Deer lawn mower not getting enough fuel to carburator, starts only
after a long wait but dies when the fuel in filter is used up. What would cause this? How is the fuel drawn into the filter? It appears that fuel is gravity fed while the engine is off, thus if you wait several hours the filter accumulates enough fuel to run the machine for 15 minutes. |

John Deere LT155 Engine Problem
Works for me, but come to think of it I did get a log-on id for JD parts. Anyhow they show a mechanical pump. I suspected that as the fuel tanks are under the seat on Deere's ever since the first few caught fire with under the hood tanks. There is no way that could gravity feed and still be able to climb even gentle hills. I wish we could post jpg here The pump kit is part # AM133627, but it might be jumping to conclusions to say that is the problem. |

Could just be dirty filter...don't know this model off-hand, is it sediment bowl or filter element? Can check if pump is working by pulling line and seeing if get flow when crank it... |
