"Disconnect F1, F2, and A from the motor. Leave the big Black wire to battery negative connected on the botom of the motor. Using jumper cables, jumper F1 to A. Then connect battery + to F2. Motor should run in one direction
Then change jumper cable from F1 to...
I would try bypassing the OLI and solenoids and just the jump the connectors to check function. That way you can rule those two out. If still nothing, then looking at a new motor
just a FYI but I just had the same thing happen. batteries were a bit low, enough to crank it over but not enough to raise the fuel shutoff solenoid so I started her up and let her idle for about 30 min. When I Went to crank her over a bit later same problem. Checked the alternator and heard a...
So after re reading most of this thread, again, I decided to leave the full fuel screw where Its at, a bit less than stock and adjust the top fuel screw out a bit, as well as my governor springs in 3 clicks.
I have not gone for a spin yet due to my only road is a main hwy and its holiday traffic...
I guess my thinking on the more fuel was to cause a rich condition, in which would hopefully bring the temps down. again, new to the diesel thing.
I did just turn the fuel up a bit (about 10 turns out) and took her for a short run. before my temps were around 1330, an now it peaked at 1400, just...
I might give it a go without the air filter installed just to see if that helps any. I also forgot to mention that I do not have a muffler installed, just the straight pipe. (rotted out)
I have been trying to figure out the timing advance, but looks like without the proper tools its better to...

98G.
I will have a local friend helping me while there with a truck and to fetch parts and such, and getting me up the road to at least phoenix, but cant make the whole trip. Once I get to PHX, if I run into problems I can make a call to Payson for some help.
Just don't have a ride down at the...
So got in touch with 98G. Unfortunately he is out of town right now but shot me his number in case I run into any issues. Just gonna check her over and if all is good drive her up.
Carnack, I wanted to wait until I actually had the truck home before I officially called myself a member...
Thanks for all the encouragement. It is payson az, so not a far trip, just trying to cover all my bases. I'm not worried about driving it back, I have had my class B CDL for years, it's more of the uunknown with potential breakdowns. Guess I just have some pre trip worries. Mtnsnow, I'll give...
Hello everyone,
Been lurking around ever since I decided I wanted a 5 ton. Got alot of good info from reading the posts here and just bid and won one!
