My Mum's tractor is a Diesel (Too embaressing to state the Make) When it was started for the first time this year the throttle on the injector pump is stiff. The return spring cannot return it to the idle position without me pulling back on it. I'm not a Diesel person. So I don't want to mess with it without some advice. Do I spray the throttle on the pump with WD40 or is there a snake oil I should run through the tractor? I assume the Throttle is internally lubricated by the diesel fuel and some has gone bad and gunked it up during storage. Any help or ideas would be great as I'm not at all familar with diesel pumps and engines. I did disconnect the linkage to the foot pedal and the stiffness/binding is at the injector pump.
