I used gasket maker to hold gasket to plate and gasket on the pump. I didn’t want it on the block and I figured I would be trashing the pump if I changed it again. I would only have to clean it off of one side of plate that comes off. Not a lot of room in there and I could only get one hand
I covered the end of rod with grease to hold it in while I took forever to get the plate and pump on. I had about 1/2” of rod sticking out of block and that was in far enough for me to get pump on. I also started the metal fuel line to help hold pump up
You need to take that plate off to get the rod back in. I just did mine and rod slide out and against the plate and that tells me the angle is wrong to get it in with plate on. Gasket needs replaced also.
My light stayed on when I got it from auction and I checked a few things and it ended up being the emergency brake was over tightened and I adjusted it and light went out and hasn’t come back one
There is a little tube sticking out above the oil filter housing and it’s hard to see. You probably need to stick something up from the bottom and try to clean it out. I used a zip tie. I tried to do on my m1165 Melton rebuild and I swear it’s not there and has a freeze plug in it. I haven’t had...
They made the mistake and it shouldn’t cost me hundreds of dollars and my time. I think 12 of my peers would agree. Lol
I think they committed the felony by changing my vin. I was just trying to keep them out of trouble….
Yesterday I finally had my appointment at DMV and everything was going good. I had to have it inspected by a certified shop and I did it a few weeks ago. The inspection form that DMV gave me is hand filled out like for vin and model and stuff. DMV put a 0 instead of a 1 and lady said she can’t...
Pics? I have a truck body and they cut the B-pillars out but didn’t mess with the c-pillars.
I just ordered the B-pillars and everything else needed to tie it in. Retiredwarhorses was really a lot of help. He helped me understand the drawing in the TM.
After cleaning the check valve and replacing the rubber hoses I’m getting a good amount of fuel at the filter inlet. I have the 2 rear injectors cracked open and I haven’t got fuel to come out yet. I do have fuel coming from the return on the IP cover. I noticed that I had a big fuel leak...
I got the new pump on and I pulled the line off of the filter and cranked it about 15 seconds 4 different times waiting in between. I got zero fuel out of it. I don’t think it’s the new pump and I believe that’s it’s installed right. I pulled the check valve out by the fuel tank and blew it out...
I couldn’t have got it without removing the fender liner. It came off really easy. I used power tools and a few minutes later it was off. The a/c and other stuff makes it harder than my m1123
As it stands now the rod is sticking out about 1/2” when I push it in. I put the rod and the grease in the freezer and I thought that might give me a little more work time before it falls down. It’s warm here now and I can tell grease is stickier than when it was on the shelf
Today I took my lift pump off, it was hard to get at. I couldn’t see anything and had to feel my way around. I took the fender liner off and I got it from the top and bottom. I think I have diesel in my oil and I thought bad fuel pump could cause it. I get it off and gave it a squeeze and it had...
