Super88 Diesel

This tractor starts and runs great but I seem to have an issue with the engine stop knob. There seems to be two idle settings, a normal slow and one with a very slight elevation (both with the same throttle position). If the tractor is in the slow speed the engine will stop with the cable. If it is in the elevated stage it will continue to run with the knob pulled out. If the tractor is run more than 5 minutes it won't idle at the slower seed unless you briefly put a load on it. It will remain at this lower speed until the throttle lever is increased. What could be the cause of this issue? Is there an adjustment for this? Thanks for your help and input.

Never heard of such a thing. Dieseltech maybe will have an idea.

Are you sure the cable is pulling the lever all the way back?

If memory serves me right, the wire on the shut off cable hooks to a short chain on the pump doesn't it? It's been a long time, but is there a spring that returns it to the run position when the knob is pushed in?

Shut off the tractor at the pump and see if the problem continues.

Yes there is a short chain hooked to the stop cable. I am sure
that it goes all the way to the stop knob on the injector pump. I
have used my hand to move the lever and it doesnt make a
difference. Would screwing in the stop knob a little help?
