Have a CAT TL 12-55 came from Texas to Canada and sat for a while in -25c temps- managed to get it going and in to the repair shop-changed fuel and filters and bled system but would not start with out a shot of starting fluid all glow plugs working and low press pump putting out 40-80 psi when running- then the engine would not start at all found injector high press pump not working replaced the pump an now back to needing starting fluid again to get running-has new diesel fuel old fuel removed- have no scan tool for this- has any one tried an OTC 3418 scan tool on Cat engines and if so does it give good sensor readings as I may purchase one if they work ok-one other problem when park brake switch is turned off and put in gear there is no throttle response-all fuel lines checked for air leaks-stating to pull out hair any help would be great.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
