    I gotta tell you , My brother was using my JD 350 dozer and it quit him he thought it was out of fuel and it sat in the field all weekend while I worked and today after watching the video I checked the 12 volt power to the pump and found a broken wire jumperd it and she fired right up ! Thanks the pain you go through has a purpose !

    It gets even harder to just look and tell what wrench to use, as now they mix in metric bolts and nuts. What a racket. Most auto repair classes are now at the Community college level.

    Congratulations! I just came across this video yesterday. I finally got my JCB 214 started today. A mechanic from the dealership was sent out this morning. After two hours, the supervisor says I need the injector pump refurbished. He estimated 10 to 12 hours to remove the pump! And, he said it would need to be done in the shop. Fortunately it fired up after I properly bled the Fuel lines and gave it a small shot of starting fluid! Hopefully, problem is solved. If not, at least I’m gaining confidence to maintain it myself.

    You probably already know this but.There is a small round pedal in the floor on some models that puts it in neutral. It for loading trucks. When the pedal is down it put it in neutral. but. Not very big around. Check it to see if it has one, if so make sure it's all the way up. Thanks for the video I always enjoy watching.

    IT'S RUNNING! 😀😀 I've been following this machine since you did the first "will it run" when it was by the dirt road. Hopefully the movement problem can be solved as well. I didn't know that John Deere would include an "anti theft" feature into their equipment, but I guess it's the right thing because lets face it, a backhoe is expensive and you wanna protect your investment. Great job fellas!!! 👍👍👍🚜

When you took it off I noticed something that might be worth looking into and trying in the future. Why not get a magnet and put it against the solonoid? It might just pull that plunger open.

Also when installing the pump make sure you start with where it was because you can advance the timing on the pump by where you bolt it back on

    When it finally started, it was so smooth and even that it was almost anti-climatic. No rattle/clatter/tons of crap being blown out of the exhaust.
    Sounds like you've got a bunch of wire connections to clean up so everything gets the voltage it's supposed to. Direct current is ... unforgiving ... in that regard. And with grounding. Make sure everything that requires it has a good clean ground connection. Weird things can happen when there isn't.

    That was fun. Reminds me of the time I gave up on a nice Honda mower and just shoved it in the corner of the yard for 2 years. One day while working on a car, I checked the gaps on the new spark plugs I was installing and suddenly thought of that mower. I pulled it out of the ivy and weeds and pulled the plug and gapped it. Fresh gas and it fired right up. lol I remember laughing like you were. I still use that Honda all these years later.
