Hello, I hop there is somebody to give me a good advise.
My Iseki TX 1500 (mitsubishi KE 75 engine) starts very bad.
When i'm lucky and he is starting then he's working fine.
But mostly the next morning the same story again won't start.I have changed the glow plugs and the battery. and also checked the engine compression (25 Bar)that's o.k. i think.I have checked the fuel lines and there is fuel comming out to the injector ,but with not very high pressure
it look like's.Or is this normal?When i keep my car and connect the battery to it i can start long enough to keep him running but it take's a few minuts.I hope to recieve a good tip Thanks allready!!!!!

Seems like they are working then. Has it always been a hard starter or is this a recent problem? ....

I have the Iseki for 2 month's now i don't know if he has a story for bad starting in the past.But i think more and more a iseki TX 1500 is not a very fast starter.Also here in Europe it's not extremly cold so that must be a benefit for this Iseki to start better than he does now.
I have heard that this iseki model with 2 cilinders must have a fast rotation for fire up the engine. ....

It's not the feul i think ,it's from our world leader in feul (Shell), it'must be a good quality of feul i think.
Also, when feul or filter are dirty or bad than is this engine not working properly all over the time i think.
Or do you think i'm wrong? ....

Could you possibly have too small of a battery? Maybe you don't have enough cranking amps to spin it fast enough. The tip to this is when you jump it using your car battery it will start.
Another problem could be that the ignition key could be starting the tractor by turning the starter motor but first must go through several electrical interlocks(pto must be off to start, etc). The electrical interlocks and wiring may cause a voltage drop meaning that you are not getting 12 volts to the starter. If you are only getting 9-10 volts, the starter will not spin fast enough or even engage. My tractor did this until I got a tip from another guy on this forum that suggested adding a solenoid to the ignition system to make sure 12 volts goes directly to the starter.
Another cause could be an improper ground or loose connection somewhere. Make sure your battery cable connections are clean and tight. Do you have a volt meter where you can check voltages? ....
