    Timing the injection pump

    Oh sorry my bad i almost forgot that the front main seal is leaking very fast, i have some "rear main sealer" fluid i'm gonna try when i get it running, ive never done one of those on any engine i've ever owned so would i need to take off the front cover anyway? Thank you both for the advice.

    Timing the injection pump

    I was stupid and over confident that i knew what i was doing and i did no research before pulling it out. that was 2 years ago i have learned since then to mark things and how timing and gear systems work, it didn't click in my brain that it was timed. i didn't even mark the injection lines or...

    Timing the injection pump

    So i took my first idi injection pump out, now i need to put it back in. I took the timing gear out and since i cant see the cam gear what is the easiest way to correctly mesh the gears so that its correctly timed, do i have to pull all the accessory drive and harmonic balancer and front cover...

    '87 6.9 idi no fuel, Injection pump?

    So I pulled the pump and I am thinking of sending it out to USDieselParts.com for a rebuild. They say they use steel inserts so it won't Waller out again. I had no freaking power and I think maybe it had been wearing out or worn out since I got the truck. My friend who has a mildly modded (non...

    '87 6.9 idi no fuel, Injection pump?

    So I'm pulling the pump, I checked it while cranking again and I don't hear the pump chattering, so maybe the shaft did break. I might have checked it wrong before. I took the top cover off and it was full of fuel, not gelled at all. So fuel is going in it's just not getting out.
