Somebody may have changed the oil pump out also. Civillian pumps have the slot in the middle, I believe. If the offset tang wasn't in it's slot, would he still be able to lock the dist. down? I think it's timing also, but this is a tough one.
Not sure which holes you mean. There are four gauges, two each side of speedo. There is a large knock-out @ four inches dia. to the right of speedo. I think it is for the defroster?
Man, that's how I lost one taking them off. I'm going to try a more controllable method. Book says to use a press. I would like to have both hands free to fudge with clips.
Thanks
Not to hijack, just add. Bjorn do you agree that the plunger should move all the way through without tighting up. the scuffed end of your plunger in the pictures, should it slide all the way through. Mine is binding on that end. Looking at mine, it's nice and smooth. Not totally sure yet if I...
While I had the tank off on mine, I replaced all the lines with new. Just buy the straight lines from Napa and bend yourself. Not too bad of a job. Brakes and fuel lines should not be overlooked [ wife's truck ] Good luck.
As with anything, once you take it apart, the fear starts to leave and you begin to understand how it works. Now alll I need are the little clips and figure out how to compress the spring enough to install the clips. The book says to use a press, I always wanted a good press :-P
Thanks guys!
Steve, can your plunger slide all the way through , when you had it apart or did it get tight at one end. I'm working on a generator, but it's almost the same pump. Moves free and easy until the one end gets to a spot then tightens up. keep checking, prolly my problem.
Hi Speddmon, Glad you're on stand by! I have two 003's on a trailer, the first one was locked up [ stuck ] got it rotating, but everything was gummed up with old fuel right to the IP. Had to take apart, didn't really want to. Got down to the two little spring clips, under the button and lost one...
We just finished wiring up my house. I have a plug in the garage and will run a cord out @ 35 feet to the gen. set on the trailer. My trailer is the 1.5 ton with two mep-003"s on it. I used a interlock system on my box, that why I can use whatever I what to in the house and/or shop. One day I...
Yep, That's been one of many threads that have been by my side for a week now. Got me enough courage to take the pump apart, found the problem and now I have to buy some of the little clips that went flying, like everybody said they would. Thanks
Thanks, I got mine all apart and the plunger is very tight in there and that's the problem. I wasn't sure if they would mess with generator pumps. I'm going to give them a call Monday. Did you get your's running good, they got some great guys on here that will help. I got alot of the threads...

Well, I've read all the posts going back two years and TM's. I finally have fuel to the IP and return line to tank. I pulled the IP and checked some of it, meaning I removed the button and turned and pushed everything seems to be working, I guess. I did remove the delivery valve and spring...
What type of truck are you using for the recovery. If it's a pickup, make sure you get the seven hole adapter plate for your pintle, you'll need all the height you can get. might have to spin the lunette.
