Injection pump wrench

[agp23109]

Anyone have a picture of the specialty wrench used for loosening the three nuts to adjust the pump timing?

In case you aren't aware - it is possible to do with a regular open end wrench. It's a pain, but doable. I just got a set of gear wrenches I'm hoping will make it easier, or just get the tool.

A gear wrench wont fit. I ground down a couple of regular wrenches. Only takes a few minutes to loosen and tighten them with them.

Holy crap that's spendy. does it actually work? Any chance this would also work? http://www.amazon.com/Injection-Pum...2895388&sr=8-2&keywords=injection+pump+wrench

I have used the same thing and it has worked fine for me as well. An open end wrench will do the job, just takes a bit more time like mentioned.

That says that is a 13mm wrench. The IP bolts on the idi's are 9/16". I wonder if they have that wrench in 9/16"? Looks like it would work then.

Oh well...

9/16 is 14mm

There is another wrench made that works on the IP nuts, I will have to find the name again (or check old threads on OB). It is about $50 new, and is sold on fleabay once in a while. I'm not sure it was made for our engines, but it works very well.

i made one with a cheap wrench and a mapp torch. took a couple of tries but it works well

 

[agp23109]

Thanks for all the replies. I just changed my pump out and made do with a normal wrench. I bent one using mapp gas but it wasn't right. The amount of time it was taking I realized it was quicker to fumble through it with a regular wrench. Now that I got a pic I will try re-bending it when I have some spare time. Thanks again!

I made this wrench and it was stupid simple to do. Just some heat and bend to fit.. then grind till you like the feel of the fit.. Enjoy...

I'm living proof of this, Ian, as you well know. Wished I'd had my stubby wrenches with me the other day!

Was already so determined to git-er-done by that last nut, that nothing was going to stop me! (Challenged myself at Pick-n-Pull, to let the rest of you in on this silliness!)

As said before, just make/modify your own. It only takes a little time with a grinder.

Here's some pics of what I use:
