This forum is big, so I am not sure if this has been discussed yet. But, I will just start this thread and hope it is a new topic.

My M756a2 stopped firing 2.2 years ago, and I have been trying to track down its problem since. The first thing I did was replace all of the filters, which did not fix the problem; however, I did stumble upon what I now believe to be the cause of its problems. When I replaced the fuel filters I found both of them have a cup-shaped fitting that insures a positive seal on the base of the cartridge. I found both filter cups on my deuce were made of brass, and pitted through. So, if you are experiencing an unusual frequency of injector, or IP, failures, then check this part.

Otherwise, if someone has access to these filter cups, and can ship me 2, then drop me a PM.
