[AT] 560 D

[Tyler Juranek]

Hi Darrell,
 I've never worked on a Desel engine before.
 What would I use to clean the injecters and glow plugs?
 Also, would I just hit the starting switch to see if the starter is working?
 My father owns a 560 g, so I am assuming that the starting sound of a
560 d sounds the same?
 My great grandfather has been gone for about 26 years, so I'm sure
this will take a lot of time and Money to get running again.
 I've never worked on a farmal, so I want to make sure I know what to do.
 Thanks,
 Tyler
