Hi all , I was wondering if someone could give me some advice. I have a Massey 38 combine that will cut for about 10 minutes then it’ll come up on the datavision screen saying “revs too low” and the combine will drop the revs on its own then die. I’ve changed the fuel filters and I thought it had of helped but after the first 25 minutes it died off again. Then repeatedly every 10 minutes after that. Any Massey combine savy men on here would know what it is? Cheers
I remember having same problem with 40rs, had to drain tank and fill with clean diesel that cured it.

Our tx did this. We thought it was something slowing the engine down, found a faulty walker shaft on which all the bearings were done in the process so replaced that, then thought the beater belt was damaged, eventually (after several thousand fixing other things) we found there was some crap in the bottom of the tank blocking diesel flow. The only rpm warning I got was on the shaft speed monitor showing the beater slowing..
