    Very strange, I can't seem to find the thread I had commented on that showed the injector pump laid out for reassembly. That was when someone told me to keep to my own thread maybe they blocked me from partisipating in that thread. This other thread shows a a couple images referring to the...

    I'm positive just losening the top a bit allowed it to fire, Regardless of how; all the pumps "fire" now. I only found one other thread as to the rebuild of the injecotor pumps. One person had shown the order putting it together (without much detail) but when i asked for more details another...

    Cylinder one was not firing becasue i overtightened the top of the injector pump. I'm still suspect of misbuilding the injection pumps because they "fire" but they don't turn down or meter the fuel.. and there seems to be no detailed info online as to the order of operations to line up the holes...

    Refrencing another Steel soilders thread about another unit that wont shut itself off; refrences a particular roatation in regard to rebuilding the Injector pump seperate of the rotation placed in the block. Maybe i rebuilt the Injector pumps wrong.

    I have all 4 injectors spraying like in the slo mo video now. So i put it back together. I should have left them there in mid air to continue to test until i figure out how to turn down the volume of fuel. Still The machine , with all 4 incjectors firing like in the slow motion video. It wants...

    Skip to like 40 secs. in Slo mo camrea is amazing.. So the injecotrs were not shooting like that right off the bat,, i had to clean them... Maybe this whole problem became because i didnt have them tight enough and they leaked and i lost compression..??? I had to crank over like 5 times...

    Well, I think i found an obvious problem. Could anyone tell me, what is the injector hold down clamp torque spec?.. after inspecting the pulled injectors, its obvious from all the improperly fueled start up attemps, they all appeared to be black and tips filled with soot.

    There is an allen key adjustment in the gearcase cover on the governor assembly;, Maybe someone before me had messed with that... What does that do? what does clockwise do, and vise versa? Anybody know?

    My set seems to be going 2x or 3x the speed of yours with or without a misfire. So frusterating i don't understand how my pumps can be overfueling like they are.

    https://www.youtube.com/shorts/oOISCBmYNK4 This just looks so bad.. Unless i don't know what i'm looking at; (which is partially true). Tell me.. is it ever normal to see an inferno come out of cylinders like that? looks like two cylinders arn't getting fuel and the other two are also doing...

    yes , that is me turning the S1 off. certainly going to do just as you said. im just ptting it back on the trailer so i dont suffocate myself, even with all the bus windows down, its too much smoke to deal with.

    New to Mep-803A ownership general questions

    Yes, i turn the S1 off and that doesn't kill the engine like right away, I don't understand why? I think contributing to the slow start ups is that I keep having to kill it by pulling off the feed lines. I'll be running with the exhust manifold off to check cylinders, and with the throttle...

    I have followed the pump setting procedure to the tee,, and still; it seems to rev really high and i cant seem to shut it down with the regualr turn off procedure, (not that i gave it too much time to find out. ) i wonder if it is possible that because i tried starting it so many times rich...

    So that is definetly contributing to the situation; but it does seem that even when i make sure the knob only comes back about half way, it is still screaming , unles they just sound that loud with a muffler. and the i still cant get it to stop itself with the solenoid. Its like the...
