Well guys, took a while to figure out, but the wrong fuel pump was on it. The replacement I got was the exact same, but no luck. The one that was on it didn’t work either. Not sure how it worked all these years, but anyways, ordered the correct one Delphi HFP906 and within a few cranks, I had...
Well now I am more confused. I disconnected the pink wire, still nothing. Pulled the inlet line to the fuel filter, cranked and couldn’t get fuel to it. Hooked a shop vac up to the inlet line to the filter and got a little bit of fuel to come out, but nothing crazy. So then I pulled the outlet...
Haven’t started pulling the IP yet - what would your solution help us narrow down? Isn’t the pink wire the cold start advance or something? I remember reading about it on another thread
Good news is a buddy of mine said i can come pull the IP off the 6.2 engine sitting on his shop floor. Was hoping to snag a 6.5 IP off the internet since i had read those give you a little more power, correct?
I will check it tonight, but if it is a new filter, and it ran fine before, it *shouldn't* be an issue, but i get what you mean - need to check to make sure that filter isn't an issue to fully narrow it down to being a bad IP
My apologies - mine does not have a bleed screw since it is the CAT one - just the drain plug on the bottom to drain out water. I should unhook the outlet side of the filter and see how much fuel is coming out
Just tried that and there were no black pebbles or anything. Pulled the inlet line from the fuel pump and stuck a hose on it and put the other end in a diesel tank and still only cranked but wouldn’t fire. Gave it a little ether and it tried to fire but no dice. Cracked injector line and it took...
Did you by chance crack injector lines and see fuel getting there but not really spraying out under pressure like it should be? (at least i thought it should be)
I guess I am not sure if it is the right one, but it is the same one that has always been on it and never had any issues - previous owner installed it
Truck should be warmed up just fine as it sits in my garage and it's easily 80 degrees out there
You think i should drop the tank and check the...
Hey everyone, need some help diagnosing a fuel problem i am having with my 1986 M1028
I have wheeled this truck for a few years now, recently it started dying when i would let off the throttle. Changed the fuel filter and fuel pump, but now i cant get it to even fire. I back pressured the fuel...
More so the tire had some rust dust on the bead that i was able to take off with the wire wheel, and then the bead on the rim was just a little gunked up with some rust, but was easily able to take it off with the wire wheel. I read about the bead sealing compound, wonder if i need to get some...
Hey guys - anybody have any tips or tricks to get the 12-bolt HMMWV wheels to seal up completely? I have the newer style 12 bolts with the centering hole and am replacing the worn out 37" BFGoodrich Baja T/A's with a new set. Never had any slow leaks on them before, but now I can't get the new...
