Due to new job I had no time to continue... but as some questioned the rebuild I thought it could help to re-check everything from the beginning. I finally found out that the litle return line valve on top of the IP was empty, the little glass ball was missing. I replaced from an old pump I had...

I could test run it out of a jerrycan, so I can eliminate everything from lift pump towards the IP. I already questionned the rebuild, but i think his work is ok, he´s got the hole equippment from surplus and is specialized in CUCVs plus I live 10 mls from him and can piss him off as often as I...

I already raised idle speed so it doesnt stall. problem stayed the same, just at "higher" rpms. it still goes up and down after reving it up and return line goes empty for a about a second, then fills up again at idle (I replaced by a clear one)

I Have the same issue with my M1010, engine almost stalls when decelerating before turns. It makes the same in "P" after reving it up quickly and idle goes up and down a bit. Truck sat for 7 years, so I first put in a new fuel filter, checked all fuel supply and return lines with pressured...

Finally got it running with gallons of break cleaner, turned the IP 1/4, now it starts immediately, runs smooth and better than ever before, almost hits 65 downhill :shock: still dont know what it was, perhaps some bio-sludge in a hidden corner of the IP??? Sold the deuce this morning, buyer...

Truck has 4600 mls/670hrs. I rarely have the time to drive it more than perhaps 50mls per month and i dont drive in winter due to salty roads

by the way, thats how i bought it and after 1 year of restauration on a show and with the MUTT on the back

As I said the filter are all fine, no sludge in the bottom, drain valves are free, but i remarked that the fuel line between HH (return side) and the fitting on the 2. filter is foamy, seems to suck air into the system somewhere pump "in" lines have no foam what is this sea foam stuff? Only...

I´m a dumbass, hydraulic head wasn`t aligned as it should ... the one tooth on right of the mark-thing in the upper timing window... clatteriing noise must have been the injectors pushed back by too advanced timing, i think thats also were the heat came from, remounted the HH making sure...

Got it started this afternoon with loads of brake cleaner, it idled very bad, no power, it did not more than 25 mph in fourth at full throttle with clattering noises, sounded like valves, then a big crunchy noise and died, water was cooking(after two miles), the rear head was hot as **** :-(...

Today I reopened the Hydraulic head as suggested, the plunger moves well up and down (inside, all bolted together) cracked the lines and finally pulled all injectors out, to my surprise it doesnt suffer from no fuel but from too much, Injectors were soaking wet with unburned fuel, they are all...

Ah, OK! thanks, good advice

Will check that tomorrow, its 10 pm over here, its freezing outside and my batteries are down cause i cranked them to death so i have to charge them overnight

there was no fuel in the pressure lines when i removed the hydraulic head why I asumed the problem had to be inside the pump after remounting the HH I didnt think of that because nothing changed
