My 64 Super Dexta started all winter and ran fine. Went to start it a couple of weeks ago and it will start then cut out within 15 seconds. Believe fuel is fine. Cleaned fuel filter and bled out system. Reset injection pump timing. Cleaned out air filter. Button on fuel cutoff lever on side of pump always used when starting. This button is now not engaging when I push it in. What is this button? Is there a problem in my injector pump? Any help would be much appreciated.

The problem is most likely your button is stuck in. This happens quite a lot on the Minimec pump.

Try operating the stop lever a couple of times or lightly grip the button with a pair of pliers and pull it out.

The syptoms you describe are exactly what happens when the button sticks.

I went out and looked in my Dexta book and I could not find the button described. My 8600 book calls it an "excess fuel button." It is to assist with cold weather starting. You open the throttle all the way, push the button, back the throttle off 1/2 way and start the engine. It gives the engine extra fuel to aid in cold weather. That is what it is for on an 8600. I've always used it that way on the Dexta.(I had the 8600 before the Dexta.) It seems to work to help in cold conditions. You should not need to use this in warm weather. Open your throttle all the way and see if the button stays depressed. Also make sure that it comes all the way out. This will test the button, but I don't think that is your problem. Check your fuel return to the tank to see if it is plugged. I suspect a plugged return, or the excess fuel button is staying depresses and the return cannot carry all the fuel. Stay tuned for other posts. There are alot better mechanics out there who will straiten us out. LOL
