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?
