The discussion below about the 584 prompts me to mention my ongoing issue on my 584 . Tractor runs great until about 1/4 full in tank and then effectively starts running out of fuel and draws air into lines. I have cleaned and blown air and done all the usual to no avail. I believe I may have surmised the problem and plan to try my solution. The 584 has a saddle tank with a fuel line running from driver side saddle of tank to passenger side saddle of tank. The line runs from bottom. The passenger side saddle has the other line running out bottom which feeds the filters. The line which runs from one saddle to other has a kink in it which I believe restricts the ability of the driver side saddle to equalize the passenger side saddle . Thus , when the saddle feeding the filters runs out then the line draws air from the empty saddle before the crimped line allows the saddle feeding it to supply the line enough fuel to prevent drawing air. I plan to install/repair line. Has anyone else dealt with this. I know some have said this tractor tends to accumulate sludge in bottom of tank but when I pull my lines I get good flow from bottom of both saddles. [ and no, my tractor has no passenger seat, I just used those terms to be clear about which side I was referring to !!]
