Stanadyne fuel additive is the only fuel additive recommended by Stanadyne to use for the injection pump on your vehicle. The 2 cycle oil does not meet Federal clean air standards, and in my opinion does not work as well as the correct additive. If you look on the pavement after idling for a...
Bringing up the idle will not correct your problem. Personally, I would never drive a vehicle on the road with a stalling problem. You could be putting your self and others at risk of serious injury.
Your timing needs to be bumped up. Even if it does not solve all of your problems, you should start by lining up your timing marks and give it a test drive. I'll bet it will run 100% better.
I don't think you want to pry straight in one direction with a bar. You need to rotate the pump as you apply pressure. A strap wrench as stated would be a much better method. You definitely don't need to remove the manifold. An extra person to pry while you twist would get the job done. If you...
There is no reason that you should not be able to move the injection pump forward. After loosening the three nuts have someone help you to twist the pump forward. Two extra pair of hands should help it move. Maybe even a tap with a mallet on a piece of wood from a friend while you twist will get...
It sounds like it might be in your valve train. You might want to remove the valve covers and check your plastic valve retainers. You might have a broken valve retainer.
I think you will need to take it to a radiator shop. If the threads are actually stripped, you won't be able to tap the threads the same size as the cooler line fitting. If you crossed threaded the threads and did not get to far into the threads, a bottoming tap may repair the threads enough to...

The leak of antifreeze at the weep hole would most likely indicate the water pump is in need of replacement. It is something that should be fixed without delay.
It's good to have a project that you're excited and energetic for after all the time you have spent on vehicles. This sounds like one that you're really going to enjoy.
