A diesel engine "hunting" refers to a fluctuation in engine speed or RPM. This can be caused by issues such as a dirty or clogged fuel filter, air in the fuel system, a malfunctioning fuel injection system, incorrect fuel injection timing, or a faulty engine sensor. These issues can disrupt the proper combustion process in the engine, leading to the hunting behavior.
