Sounds like you have enough fuel in the engine for it to fire but soon runs out. As if the engine is starved for fuel at low rpms. Have you replaced you fuel filters recently? You might have an air leak in a fuel line.
Good luck Mike Fair Cio Cio San Padnaram, MA From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Marek Dziedzic Sent: Friday, September 20, 2013 1:23 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Stus-List Diesel starting Hi, I wonder if anyone could offer any suggestions. I found that lately (last few weeks), I have problems starting. The motor kick in right away, but it does not stay up. It runs for a few seconds and quits. It then takes a few tries before it starts and I have to give it a bit more throttle. The weather is cooler lately (most of the summer we were above 25C); is this an issue? I start with the throttle at idle; about 15s of glow plugs. The motor is a Perkins M20 (2 cyl). Any ideas what I do wrong? thanks Marek
