is that a perkins diesel or LPG fueled motor?
if diesel, have you replaced the fuel filters and does ANY of the rubber fuel lines have cracks that you can see if you bend the line? (replace all those lines and the fuel filter)
if LPG. does it have an electric or vacuum operated fuel lock off? does it have enough motor oil?

The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
