injector pump

[m8094538]

i was wondering if you guys could tell me where to find a good rebuilt injector pump for my 86. i finally got some cash together so im in the market and need to get my truck back on the road soon. found a few on ebay but ive heard they just replace the one thing that wore out and slap it back together and as this is my only form of transportation i dont wanna deal with getting an unreliable pump. thanks in advance

you will find out that you get what you pay for. if it was me, i would get ahold of mel and get a jr moose pump, unless you have a turbo, then id get the reg. moose pump. his screen name in "AGNEM" just pm him and see what it will take.

I'll second mud's suggestion.

if u have the money i would definetly go for a moose pump, but if your like me and cant afford one, Pennsicola Diesel.com has a pretty cheap rebuild pump.

I haven't personally done any business with them, but I'd read post #4 before I did:

I have done business with both Russ (typ4) and Mel (Agnem) and they were great. I'd recommend them to anyone. Reasonable prices, good service and great products!

I'm running Mel's Baby Moose rebuild on my '94 turbo and it's plenty big enough with BB injectors. It will save you some money over his high performance pumps.

so i ordered my pump last night and i just wanted to thank everyone for the quick replys. i decided to just go with one from pennsicola for now being as i couldnt afford the moose right now, but they didnt need mine as a core so in a few months after i get my bills caught up and some cash back in the bank im gonna send mine out to mel and get the injectors too. i know this'll cost more in the end but right now money is tight and i need the truck asap.

Good luck with their pump. Hopefully their DB2 is better than what they do to their DS4.

Yea I'm praying I get a good pump. Like I said I only really need six months out of it and ill be upgrading to a moose pump. Now the fun part is gonna be trying to change the
pump I have. Never done it before and I'm just hoping it goes smoother than when I put my injectors in, took me three days to get them to quit leaking

I personally think the pump is easy to do on these trucks. the GM diesels are a pita. especially since you need a scanner to time the thing.

friend of mine had a 6.5 diesel, 3 pumps later from Pensacola.

when i needed a pump for my Suburban, i bought it from the dealer, they had the best price on a new pump. Weird huh!

There is also a place in Arizona that has reasonable deals on our pumps, seen them on ebay a few times.

Changing the pump is not difficult, unless you make it so.
READ READ READ everything you can find in the tech section before you do anything.
DO NOT REMOVE THE PUMP ATTACHED TO THE SEMI-CIRCULAR COVER ON TOP OF THE ENGINE!!!!

First time I swapped IPs, I think it took about 2-3 hours. Second time it was less than an hour.
Read the tech articles before removing anything!

Some people like to remove the lines while the pump is on the truck, I find it easier to lift everything out as one piece.

Only problem I found, is the clearence is tight trying to move the pump back far enough to get it out. I solved this by pulling the pump back a little and removing the top pump mounting stud, it gives just enough room to pull it out.
Dont stress, it really is an easy job.

I pulled the inlet line and did it in about an hour and a half.
