    After 4 days of shipper shenanigans I have the donor. So when I get off work this morning the fun starts. Best part is the old was a Bosch pump and the donor is an Ambac so upgrade!

    Judging from the paint these haven't been opened. I really think the strainer and filters being backwards was the major factor. Speaking of the fuel filters were the mil part number so its anyone's guess how little attention they got. If it weren't for this injection pump issue it would be a...

    Waiting for the engine to arrive I have found other tasks to do testing glow plugs filters etc. The fuel filters are still the military filters and good lord the water contamination was bad. Made me think the separator was never drained. So that was next and the mud buildup was the worst...

    I'm sure it won't be too horrible, never done one before. The part that has me most concerned is the button setting. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

    After some online searching I was able to find a shipper that was more reasonable, so hopefully I should have the whole thing within a few weeks. Then I get to play the song and dance of injection pump replacement. Thanks to all for the opinions

    Mep-003 donor engine

    I have the opportunity to get ahold of a mostly complete donor engine. Problem being it is 3000 miles from me and shipping is costly. What items would you all think should be pulled and saved? Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk
