I have a cub 7235 3cyl diesel with around 600 hours and it, I was plowing snow and it just quit running. I drained all of the fuel, has new fuel, bled the air, and still wont start. The exhaust will smoke when it turns over but that's it. Is it not getting enough fuel? Injection pump? I removed the fuel shutoff solenoid and that seems to be working.

How did you make out with that? Wonder if the glow plugs are hot enough? ....

How cold was it? Did your diesel gel up in the fuel filter? Happens to me if I forget to put anti-gel in the fuel and it gets colder than about 20.

You bled it at both the filter and at the injection pump?
Make sure you're getting 12V to both the 'pull-up' and 'run' terminals on the shutoff solenoid. The pull-up coil is only energized when the key is in 'start', the 'run' has 12V whenever the key is 'on'. Both coils should have low resistance to ground.

Some people have reported similar "can't-restart" when the battery is weak, try jump-starting the tractor with your car. A replacement battery is a heck of a lot cheaper than an injection pump rebuild! ....
