So I replaced the sensor again with a new one and the tach is back to normal working fine. Sensors seem to be doubling in price so I was hoping someone had some input on how to fix my problem.
I was attempting to install a new serpentine belt, which was too long, and discovered my AC delete idler has a bad bearing. Mine had a squeek similar to yours. A new one is on the way.

I took my wires underneath the insulation to the left of the shifter by the driver's seat. Then at the rear of the seat, crossover to the battery box through the tunnel at the reinforcement cross member behind the front seats. Then into the battery box at the left of the passenger seat. If you...
It could be your automatic advance plunger being corroded and stuck. It sits on the bottom and water collects in the engine valley and rust and corrosion sit in. My 1045A2 was doing exactly as you describe. I sent my pump out for a rebuild and they replaced all bad components and overhauled it...
There is no vacuum on your diesel engine and the fuel pump is mechanical, not vacuum operated. Open or remove the bleed screw at the filter, turn the engine over with the starter and see if you're getting pressure and flow. Or if you don't want to make a mess, remove the hose going into your...
