bowl with clean diesel fuel. Hold the throttle in the idle
position. With the bolts removed from the pump cover,
position the cover about 1 /
4
” forward, toward the shaft
end, and about 1 /
8
” above the pump. guide the cover
downward and rearward into position, being careful not
to damage the cover seal. reinstall the bolts with the
flat washers against the pump cover.
reconnect battery cables. Turn the ignition switch to
the “On” position, and touch the pink solenoid wire to
the solenoid terminal. a clicking noise should be heard.
if clicking is heard, proceed to next step. if not heard,
the linkage may be jammed in the wide-open position.
DO NOT START THE ENGINE!! remove the pump
cover. ground the solenoid lead (opposite hot terminal
on the cover) and connect the pink wire to the cover
terminal. With the ignition switch on, the solenoid in the
cover should move the linkage. if not, free the linkage
or replace the solenoid. reinstall the cover.
Make sure battery cables are disconnected after
solenoid test.
reinstall the fuel return line and fast idle solenoid.
purge the air from the system as follows: remove and
fill all filters with clean diesel and reinstall the filters.
detach all fuel supply hoses between the lift pump (fuel
pump in the side of the engine) and the injection pump
at their highest ends, and fill them with clean diesel fuel
using a small funnel. reattach the hoses.
reconnect batteries. Turn ignition on and, after the glow
plug light goes out, crank the engine, again in intervals
of 20 to 30 seconds followed by one minute of cooling,
until the engine starts. it may not start immediately,
due to fuel lost when adjusting the injector pump. it
also may be necessary to depress the accelerator pedal
somewhat.
run engine at idle for a few minutes, to allow it to
warm. check oil feed lines for leaks. engine may idle
erratically or surge until air is fully purged from fuel
system.
drive vehicle. several short bursts of acceleration are
required to completely purge the fuel system of air.
The engine may run slightly rough until the purge is
complete, but will not in any way cause damage to the
engine.
if possible, drive vehicle under heavy load conditions
and monitor egT levels. if vehicle tends to exceed
1050°f under heavy load, the pump adjustment must
be reduced (allen screw turned counter-clockwise).
keep track of your adjustments.
