    Injection pump screen

    So I removed the cap tonite and there was crud. There was quite a bit more in the cap. Some of it I had to scrape out with a screwdriver. The through hole was very small. The screen did not come off of this part. It seemed to be quite fixed. Does it just pull off? Or must it turn? I’m kind of...

    Injection pump screen

    Any orange paint is long gone on mine. I don’t agree with “your not supposed to do something on something you own”. In this case, it doesn’t matter who does it, it would be simple to have made a hex there instead of two flats. To remove the whole pump or even a the injection lines is kind of...

    Injection pump screen

    Tea, but it doesn’t have flats for a socket. You can’t get a wench on it correctly because of the injection lines. (Not even a crows foot) Engineers being engineers. (They don’t have to work on em)

    Injection pump screen

    So I removed the lock, but I don’t think it’s necessary. Then I tried to hit the serations with a punch. Didn’t move. Finally, I got a really strong 3/4” end wench and was able to stick a bar through the box end. I applied a lot of torque and it moved. I only turned it about a 1/4 turn, but I...

    Injection pump screen

    Well I give it a try today. That sucker is tight. I was able to get a crows foot wench on the fuel line, but I couldn’t get one on the cap because of all the injector lines. I had to put a 3/4” end wench on it straight out. Then an adjustable wench on that and twist. Obviously, not the best set...

    Injection pump screen

    It would be nice if it would all stay stuck together and I could just spray some brake clean on the screen. I suppose I can’t get that lucky. Fingers crossed til tomorrow.

    Injection pump screen

    Yes, there’s lots of flow at the inlet line. (If it’s not hooked up to the IP) I guess I’m back to the screen. It was starting to get dark and I didn’t want to try it. I should get to it tomorrow. I will mark its location although I don’t really see why it’s necessary. Judging by what came out...

    Injection pump screen

    So I just pulled the IP top half case off and removed the fitting with the check valve. It would allow compressed air through it going out, but not in. It seemed to require a bit of pressure to pop. I guess that’s correct. Anyways, I put it back together and it ran the same. Would start right up...

    Injection pump screen

    Thankyou so much for all of that. I’m going to attempt it after I check the return.

    Injection pump screen

    Ive seen a pic of the cap off, but I couldn’t see any threads in the pic. It couldn’t be pressed on, could it?

    Ive had it on here before. It’s a “Vulcan Wheeled Carrier”. I’m trying to get it running.

    Injection pump screen

    This thing was sitting for 30 years and I rigged a temporary fuel system up with no filter to see if I could start it. To my amazement, it started and ran for 10 minutes. I shut it off because I had some leaks in other systems. (Hydraulic and coolant) I cleaned out the fuel system and installed...

    Injection pump screen

    I’m working on a proto type military vehicle that has a humvee motor (6.2L) After much searching I found that the injection pump has a inlet screen. I think maybe mine is clogged. Has anybody changed/cleaned theirs with out removing the pump from the motor? It looks like the screen cover just un...

    803A droop adjust screw?

    The rack is inside. Can’t take pic unless I tear it all apart. So it appears the pumps maybe at fault. When I switched the two front pumps, the front cylinder got hot. I say appear because these pumps are so hard to install. You can’t really be sure if the swivel pin goes in the rack or not...

    803A droop adjust screw?

    So I pulled the center pumps and reinstalled them. No change. Now I’m swapping the two front pumps. (got to let it cool first.

    803A droop adjust screw?

    Will do.

    803A droop adjust screw?

    Ok, I put an elbow on the exhaust so the smoke goes outside. I tried to do the adjustments on that attachment. When I was adjusting one pump, I heard a snap like the pin just snapped in to the rack. I ended up pulling two injector pumps. I’m not sure if the pins were in the rack or not. I...

    803A droop adjust screw?

    I watched that video. It seems like your machine runs more controlled than mine. I will try to make a video today. I would like to get it slightly out side the shop, but my pallet jack can’t go out the door. I also would like to put a load on it. I don’t got a good set up like you. I will need...

    803A droop adjust screw?

    When you say “rack is sticking”, what does that mean? I know there’s a rack inside that moves to control the injectors. It moves freely when at rest. let me ask you this stupid question. If the volts read about 240 and the Hz is about 60, does that mean the motor is running the correct rpm...

    803A droop adjust screw?

    Yes, I have a shut down problem. On my 5KW, when I turn the switch to off, I would estimate it takes less than ten seconds to completely stop. On this 10 KW, when I first turn it off, it doesn’t even react for 10 seconds! It just keeps on roaring away. After a bit, it starts throttling back and...
