Ok so I ended up adding a lift pump above the fuel tank. Since I only had about 3psi of fuel pressure after the first filter. That seemed to help. I also changed the injector nozzles and the truck ran great. Then just the other day. I was pulling a drag to clear some property and the deuce...
I wiped off the booster pump this morning started the fuel pump and watched for fuel leaking Didint see any so I started engine and checked again. No fuel leak as far as I could tell. Before I wiped down the pump I did a sniff test on the fluid that was on the hose. It didint smell like diesel...
Would be nice. I'm going to wait to start it up in the morning so I don't piss off my neighbors. I'll try bleeding the injectors but if that don't help then I'm pulling the pump. Probably will pull it regardless since it definitely looks like it's leaking. Thanks for all the responses from...
I just noticed the new fuel line between the primary filter and booster pump has fuel on it. It's tight so I'm thinking maybe the booster pump is leaking. It's wet about 12" down the line and the booster pump has oil on it.
When I got the injectors I opened them up and cleaned them with carb cleaner. They had lots of carbon around nozzles so I ran a Qtip thru them and took a fine piece of copper wire to clear out the holes. Sprayed them down with wd40 , reassembled hooked them to the pop tester. All but one of them...
I replaced the small rubber hose on the lift pump in the tank then I did the primary filter and the line running from the primary to the boost pump. Also 2 lines and filters after the boost pump. Didint change the line from the tank to primary but it looked ok. What should pressure be right...
Seems to work ok. But I havent checked the pressure. If I turn off the fuel pump while it's still running, I don't notice any change in rpm or hear any difference in performance. Should it affect performance while idling?
This last fall I purchased a 71 m35a2. It had been sitting for years. Truck started after 2 -3 try usually. It drove great when you floored the pedal. But had a bad hesitation in low to mid throttle. When the weather here in Arizona started getting colder. Starting became next to impossible in...
