Hello, first post here. I have gone through a decent amount of info from this site, there is definetly a lot of knowledge floating around here.
Which leads me to another M50/MEP-002A injector pump question!
Brought mine home a couple (2?) years ago, missing a bunch of parts so just wanted to see if it would fire. First mistake I made was barring the motor over by hand, heard some hard "click" noises from the IP area. Most likely broke something.
Either way, fuel rack lever was very stiff. Pumped through a mixture of PB blaster, #2, and ATF with the aux. pump, got a steady flow on the return line. Lever moves freely now. With aux pump on, fuel lever up, cranking, never got fuel to injector lines.
Opened hex head delivery valve nut, and the whole valve came out? Meaning the threaded delivery valve holder is still attached to the cap somehow. And found the little nylon spacer at the base of the valve was broken and brittle.
I basically gave up when I found the spacer was not readily available, nor could I find any parts for this darn pump besides plunger guides and gaskets. I guess spring time has encouraged me to dig into it again.
Anyone have a source for parts? I'm not afraid to open the pump up, but I can't find a decent supplier for parts, which scares me.
Thanks in advance,
Matt
