If the HZ gage drops suddenly to zero and then the machine dies, that sounds like an electrical shut down, not mechanical engine shut down.
If the engine dies due to a mechanical issue the HZ will drop as engine speed decreases. It won't drop instantly to zero and then the engine dies.
As for...
You need to determine what's causing the gage to peg itself up high before you do anything. It could be the sending unit, could be the gage itself, could be a wiring issue or even an engine problem.
I'm having a little bit of a hard time understanding what you are trying to say sometimes.
Is the...
The Glow plug solenoid / relay is mounted to the rear wall inside the control cube. You can find it in the TM.
There are 2 relay / solenoids mounted 1 above the other. One is the glow plug, but don't recall which, I think the bottom one.
There is no actual alternator, nor is there an alternator...
Well be careful, The Carter P74016 as well as the other 24V Airtex numbers are not quite drop in replacements.
The E1074 has a right angle built into the top of the pump. The others are all straight through.
You need to rig up some 90* adapter fittings to make the straight pumps fit.
It also...
Most times the old hard copy Molex catalogs would tell you the mating pin series# on the same page as the connector / pins that you located.
Maybe they show the same info on-line if you look up the Series / PN of the half you located?
But I would also just go with M/F .250" Fast-On connectors...
It sounds like your Aux. pump is working but your primary pump ( next to the radiator on the oil filter side of the engine ) is not.
The Aux pump ( hidden inside the fuel tank compartment ) will run anytime the switch is in the aux position and the tank is below about 3/4 full.
Guy wants you to...
If we see anything in the news about your mysterious disappearance we will notify the authorities..... and haul you hardware away for free... to get it out of your wife's way! :ROFLMAO:
Ah, you have a new style starter without the external linkage. The original starters had external levers and pivot pins, yours looks new and should not have that issue.
Maybe also take a look at the levers on the IP's. When installed they just barely clear the underside of the block without rubbing. If one of the levers got bent up just a tad, it may be rubbing ever so slightly when things expand.
Excessive shims under the pumps further reduces the clearance...
After your last explanation I'd prob
You beat me Tom, I was typing the exact same thing! pivot points tend to stiffen up and cause delayed / improper movement of the bendix and drive gear.
This tag L.I.T.D mentioned is normally on the right side of the block forward of the starter and below the alternator.
Typically shows the new bore, main and rod bearing sizes.
You have to stand in front of it and accurately get a detailed description of exactly what happens as it begins to die, how quickly it dies, and what is happening after it shuts down. That will get us pointed in the right direction.
Does the oil pressure gage stay high even after the machine...
2 other things, the seal should have a spring inside the lip on the inside, look at the old one to see if the spring somehow got knocked off.
The other thing I have seen is that the crank seals that come with the gasket kits from China are a tad too small on the OD and don't press into the...
Assuming you're talking about the VR Quad fuse mod. that @loosegravel depicted, make sure you have the right fuse in there. needs to be a 3A Slo-blow.... otherwise it won't work right.
If the fuse is correct maybe you should ohm out the exciter stator per the TM first?
pull off the tin cover on...
I have a feeling it's not a matter of a gummed up pump. These pumps are simple magnetic plungers, not rotary motors, so a stuck pump doesn't pull high current like and electric motor's LRC. You probably have a shorted pump or an issue with the float module.
Start by unplugging the pump, then...
