Hey all,
I’ve been working on this 1990 7.3 IDI that I’m thinking of buying. It’s been sitting for an indeterminate amount of time. I have it running off of a 12v pump and Jerry can of diesel to the fuel filter. I’m getting good fuel pressure and flow through the filter. All of the fuel returns on the injectors are full and pressurized, and the injection pump is getting fuel to the inlet.
When I energize the shutoff solenoid you can hear it clicking on and off, as well as the timing advance solenoid.
I’ve cracked all of the injection lines, and I’ve even removed a couple of the injection lines entirely. With the engine turning over I’m getting 0 fuel flow out of the injection lines.
Is there a chance that the shutoff solenoid isn’t actually opening properly even though it’s clicking? Is there something else in the IP that could be causing it not to send any fuel?
Thanks for the help guys.
