M1009. I removed the motor due to an issue with the block. It ran perfect.
I bought a long block. I was told it had 9x000 miles on it and was running fine when removed.
I inspected the bottom end, made sure everything went around like it should and felt like it should. Everything seems fine.
The engine will not start.
The timing gear "dots" are lined up.
The IP was taken off my old motor and was working great.
It's been bleed by the book.
It's getting fuel to the cylinders.
The glow plugs are getting juice and ohm out to 1.5 ohms.
The IP timing mark is lined up with the mark on the engine.
I cannot even get it to start by putting diesel in the manifold or spraying ether.
There is no smoke when cranking.
All I can think is its an internal timing issue, but I cannot imagine what. The engine was not taken apart.
Going back over my other thread, a poster said that there's a round and an oblong hole on the IP gear.
I guess if no better ideas, I'll check that tomorrow.
Any help appreciated, I'd really like to get on the road again. I'm going insane.
There is a pic of the gears in my other thread here: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?187687-6-2-IP-timing&p=2209764&highlight=#post2209764
