You should also check the fuel return line, you might have a leak anywhere in that line, and its dripping down to the skid level where the return enters a poly tube and goes back to the fuel tank. I would replace every inch of the return with Gates safety stripe if it were me.

In addition to above, check for very small spray leaks/weeping out of the hose that connects the water seperator base, to the inline fuel filter. Its an often overlooked part. Its a cheap part to have on the shelf too, should it ever go on you...

And they need to be positioned not only in that notch, but also the top part rotated as close to the push rod tube as possible upon reinstallation. That top rotation allows for the pump to be 'clocked' to allow the full range of governor arm movement. If they are not set evenly, you can see poor...

Yes, bingo. They look like this: See that downward metal pin? That locks into (4) notches on the governor armature. When they move to the left, it restricts fuel completely... far right, full volume. This is what the armature looks like on the inside. See how if they aren't nested into...

You will need to pull the metering pumps (or at least one of them) and see if they are lined up with the slots in the internal armature that opens and closes the fuel to them. I would suspect that if you cannot fully close that arm, that one or more are not properly lined up and its stopping the...

The fact that your dead crank switch isn't doing what its supposed to, is a red flag.

If you jump the starter it will spin, but that doesn't open the fuel shutoff solenoid, or any of the other startup functionality... it just spins the engine over. Those TM steps are listed in a particular order, for a particular reason. I would go through them one by one and confirm before...

The dead crank has nothing to do with the S1, so I think this warrants further evaluation. Perhaps your batteries have surface voltage, but fail under load. I would yank them out and have an auto parts store load test them. Your alternator might not be producing sufficient voltage to charge them...

Does it crank from the dead crank switch? Whats your battery voltage at now?
