In Reply to: Ford 1700 diesle ran out of fuel cant start now posted by ken on Wednesday, April 28, 2004:
I also ran a diesel out of fuel once, and diesel mechanic buddy of mine showed me a neat trick. Soak a rag in gas, wring it out tightly, then hold it over the air intake while spinning the motor over....mine fired right up! I held the rag there until the motor picked the diesel fuel up. Good luck! Stan Wilhite Decatur AL.
