Please help.
1994 IDI turbo into 1997 PSD F350. Both wiring harnesses swapped out. Everything hooked up.
I had this engine running when the wiring was not hooked up. I took my boat gas tank with the squeezie-bulb and pressurized the fuel system and put the return line into the tank.
Got the injector pump wired up, jumpered the glowplugs and touched the relay. she cranked and started and ran pretty good. Had it running for a while.
NOW, I have the wiring completed, manual glowplug controller switch, I hear the relay turning on in the injector pump, little bit if smoke coming out of the tailpipe when I crank it, no start.
I had no flow from the front or rear tank. I put the squeezie-bulb inline to try to suck some fuel from the tank through the system and there is simply no flow. It pushed the fuel that was in the temporary clear filter through and into the system. It drew a vacuum on the truck tank side. Could the fuel tank selector switch be in some mode where neither tank is open?
Regardless of that, I hooked up the boat tank again and pumped the squeezie-bulb again to pressurize the system. STILL no start. Cranked for a while and saw a little smoke at tailpipe, fuel being sucked through the clear filter.
I'm pretty sure everything has power that needs it, fuel appears to be present...
I wonder if the feed and return lines are hooked up correctly...? I hooked the top line to the return and the bottom line I thought was feed based on the fuel system I saw on the PSD that was in there.
Please help.
All suggestions considered.
