zetor 9540 why is it so hard to start

very smoky and runs very bumpy for bout a minute buts takes bout 3 minutes to start
 
Not familiar with this model, older ones like 6045 7045 were hard to start but pumping the hand primer on the lift pump for 30 seconds before trying to start them helped alot. give it a go, and let us know.
 
check the glow fuse and glow relay and if there are power to the glow plugs

 
yeah we also have 6341 super with power loader has 7200 hours on the clock but from new had to prime hand pump but starts first turn of the key triied that on the 9540 but doesent work
 
Hi,
Most likely glow plug problem. No need to remove them to check. Just disconnect and check with resistance meter. If you've got early model they have one thermostart in inlet manifold.
