and don't take my replies wrong. the wife has been pissing me off since i got the duece... so if i seem short in any of my replies, i appologize. women + 115 degree's in the sun = a bad day.
i went and got some 800cca battery's today, man that thing spins over 100% different than it did with Anything else i put in it! i almost grabbed semi battery's lol, but i knew they wouldn't fit in the battery bay. thought about modding it to fit 2 4D semi battery's....
so now it turns over plenty fast but still doesn't run. i'll clean that shutoff rod assembly today when the sun is down enough to give me some shade, and then bleed the injectors and seem where it stands.
my background:
i've been a mechanic since '99, but 95% in the gasoline field. i own 4 diesel's...and can get around them pretty well however this is the first BIG diesel (and military grade) vehicle i've owned so, some stuff is a bit new to me...and i just enjoy the input of other's who have actually sat around working on these already.
i'll let you know later tonight, the outcome of the above.
