So my '91 is being a little funky. I resurrected an old thread looking for advice when I misdiagnosed the issue and will include that original post down below. Here is what is going on. If I turn the key, let the glow plugs warm, and then crank it just cranks and cranks and doesn't catch at all. I'm getting power to the FSS on the IP. The FSS seems to be working correctly as it clicks if I unplug or plug in the connector. If I jump the starter relay the engine cranks and cranks but doesn't catch. If I turn the key to on and jump the starter relay the engine catches and starts immediately.
Here is my post in another thread where I misdiagnosed this.
Figure I'm better resurrecting this thread than starting a new topic. Trucks been sitting for a few days as the brake booster went out, replaced that yesterday. Went to start it today and it turns over real well but doesn't catch at all. I found the plug (plastic protector broke off) for the fast idle solenoid was sitting on the IP housing. I'm wondering if that could've shorted out my fuel shutoff solenoid? With the key in the on position I am getting power to the FSS. No noticeable clicking or anything except from the glow plug relay. Attempted to call up a few Stanadyne dealers but it's the 23rd and no-one is around. I get fuel spitting out of the Schrader valve when I crank it.
I'm looking at this one: https://www.amazon.com/Injection-Solenoid-26214-Stanadyne-Master/dp/B07KQQ3BTG/ref=sr_1_3?crid=3BVSMS4SVSOWR&keywords=fuel+shutoff+solenoid+stanadyne&qid=1671819603&s=automotive&sprefix=fuel+shutoff+solenoid+stanadyne,automotive,175&sr=1-3&ufe=app_do:amzn1.fos.006c50ae-5d4c-4777-9bc0-4513d670b6bc
Anyone have any experience with these?
EDIT: I take that back. The FSS clicks when I unplug it or plug it, I'm just going deaf I guess. I'm going to try to get a friend over to crank the engine when I crack the injector lines.
