That's what i thought when i bashed it out was that that debris in there was from the IP failing or so i thought i read that on these forums. That's the weird thing too is that my old IP, the check valve was clear, but it would die after you let off the throttle. Thought it was bad internals...

Hi Guys - looking for some input on a potential sticking metering valve on my IP I swapped a used IP into my M1028 a few months ago. The fuel screw on it was turned up all the way due to it coming off of an old 6.2 that had a turbo on it. Timing on it is about 2 line width's advanced. It still...

Little update for everyone on this for some closure. Went to adjust the fuel screw back up 1/4 of a turn, but this time i did it via the top of the IP just so I knew how to do it for future reference. Pulled out the governor, made the mistake of bumping the starter to rotate the IP to get access...

Morning Gents! Well i have been stumped on this, i was gone for a week over the 4th, and am back troubleshooting this puppy. I had it about 1/4" retarded and thought i would take it for a test drive. It seemed to be going great and was not dying once you let off the throttle, but it would die...

Well guys finally got the other IP swapped over that came off my buddy's donor 6.2 Was able to get it to fire up right away after swapping it over and now it will stay running and not die after letting off the throttle. Only weird thing was the first time i got it to fire off, it acted like it...

Yes it does, it just doesn't go back after hitting full throttle - video below: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1d9zRMxwtFSCrjm3Ffwt12DWVfB436LV_/view?usp=sharing I thought the metering valve was sticking, but after pulling off the injection pump and then looking at my buddy's injection pump...

Well i messed with it some more last night - adjusted the idle screw on the drivers side of the IP by the throttle cable, still same problem. It is just weird because it fires right up, and doesnt smoke. Idles somewhat fine after it warms up a bit. But after you let off the throttle, unless you...

Well I tried again last night - got it fired up and still the same problem. Installed the clear hose like mentioned, and there was not an air bubble when it was running. Only after shutting it off did a small bubble form. Next i tried cracking injector lines while it was running and had about...

Pull the check valve in the return line on the top of the injection pump. Look inside and see if there are little black bits in there. Already tried that and there were no little black pieces or anything - i could see light through the little glass ball

It's just so weird to me that this randomly started happening one day at an offroad competition. I thought if the IP is going out, the symptoms of that slowly come about? My truck has never just died while running. I remember it vividly because i didn't even realize it had shut off i was so...

So i should put the clear hose on there and see if there's an air bubble right? Does going through and cracking all of the other injectors get me anywhere? Seems i remember reading on a thread on here about the clear hose, but not really about guys needing to go through and crack injector lines...

I had an injector line cracked when i fired it up, wouldn't that have gotten most of the air out?

Doesn’t that just tell us if there is any air in the system?

Well guys plugs was an issue. Pulled them all and only 1 of them didn’t ohm out. Put all new ones in and finally got it to fire up and run but had to massage the throttle a little to get it to stay running. But if I gave it a lot of throttle, once I let off, it would die. It’ll fire right back...
