mf 35 engine diagnosis

One other thing I noted was when I killed the engine, there was a louder then normal 'sucking air' (grasping for breath - type sound) sound from the exhaust/manifold area.

Sounds like a blockage some where, try easy stuff first, remove exhaust and try to see if it improves, and try removing bottom of air filter bowl or air pipe to manifold to see for improvement,

Hi LEE on the glow plug that's called a Thermo start sometimes they could actually mess the engine out where they go on the running pouring diesel straight in to the manifold and kill the engine let us know if it's a four-cylinder a three cylinder tonight I go to see my old mate thanks John

If you rule out fuel and air; I think it might be valves. We had a ford 6610 that was very smokey and down on power. When dyno'd it had no constant rpm or hp, as it was fluctuating too much- 48-62hp from memory. It never went bang while we had it; but we have been through several engine rebuilds with generators over the last few weeks, and if your valves are not seating properly, your going to loose combustion, or have a valve go south.

 

On our lister when rebuilt; one of the pots (air cooled) was sucking and blowing. so we retorqued it and it sealed. Im just wondering of your head gasket is gone, or if your head could have warped?

If it is difficult to start it 'may' have dropped a valve.
