Not quite, the Ford 6.4 and 6.7 pumps look like tiny V engines. The 6.0 looks closer, 7.3 even more so, but none are the same as the cat engines.

Of course. Can't be that simple 😆. The hunt continues. Thanks for clarifying that After poking around in more RV forums, can confirm the square style pump was part of the 3126E update. Another search says the E pump and B pump are interchangeable, researching more on that now.

That's what I meant by timing, I should have said injector pulse width.

It appears that these trucks were civilian issue that the army just purchased and used, everything is stock international. If you can, post a pic of the data plate on the glovebox, that should shed a little light. If what I read is correct 4x4 was achieved with a Dana 70 up front and a...

Could be, but I would bet the timing is more accurate with a new pump. Edit: How much of an increase in fuel pressure did you notice on the diagnostics afterwards?

https://www.irv2.com/forums/f124/interesting-heui-discovery-481583.html I know links from outside websites are generally frowned upon, but since there's so little information or pics on a teardown out there I hope it will be forgiven, also just in case the link dies I downloaded the pics so...

Done, thread is CAT HEUI issues, failures and fixes.

What we're trying to achieve here is a more intricate understanding of how and why these things fail, with a focus point on the 3126B, which seems to have the highest failure rate. I have not been able to find a rebuild kit for this, if someone knows of one please post it here. I understand...

Is anyone starting a thread dedicated to HEUI failures/troubleshooting? I've been researching and found some good information, seems like since this thing is kryptonite for both the 3126 and C7, it may be worth having its own thread. If not I'll post findings here. Glad to see it's running again.

Ugh..... I liked the eye bolt in the head stud hole idea mentioned above, until I saw what angles the eye bolts would be at. I wouldn't think a headless engine would be heavy enough to crush a pan, especially if you used a 4"-6" wide strap, but can't say for sure. Carc might be on to it...

Now that's a "hold my beer" moment..... Kudos to the operator. Glad it all worked out for you

General tip, lifters "tick" when they don't get enough lubricity, thin oil does not offer enough lubricity. Old oil may be thick to start, but thins very quickly as it warms, and may as well be water when it gets hot, note how the ticking gets louder as the engine gets warmer. Hydraulic...

Dad had one of these when I was 5, maybe 6 years old tops. I still remember the buzzer tone and the way it smelled, this brought those memories back for me. Thanks for that. Amazing work.

Nailed it! I love the key 😆😆😆

It appears that TM has been long scrubbed from the "free market", now as guy said it must be purchased and hoarded or found in a barn somewhere and uploaded. Even the Wayback machine yielded zero results. I have one friend up this way I will call, chances are low, but not zero.
