Hi, I'm new here. Name is Pete. I'm trying to help my brother with his Vermeer SC50TX stump cutter. He bought the machine new and has had a series of problem with it. I'm an auto mechanic and have helped him maintain and repair the machine.
The latest problem is that the engine fires, runs for maybe 10 seconds, and then dies. Over and over. It does have good fuel and it's reaching the injection pump. It seems to me that the computer is finding something wrong as soon as the engine starts and therefore shuts it down.
If this forum isn't the place for such a discussion and you know of the right place please let me know.
The nearest service center is over an hour away and we'd like to avoid 4 trips there if possible. Location is SE PA.
