The small Kubota Diesel engines are the Most reliable engine you will ever see...
They can set for YEARS and fire up without a problem... Diesel fuel Old or New will be good fuel...
I am not sure what you are referring to by "not for sure the injector lines have been takein loose and they work as they should"
What engine is it, and what controls the fuel shut off lever on the rack?
Common problems:
Contaminated fuel
Air in low and/or high pressure fuel pump
Glow plugs not functioning properly, if so equipped
Low battery
Fuel shut-off solenoid not working properly
