You have chips in your oil too? It is not thaaaaat bad actually. Once you do it, you realize its not bad. The hardest part is starting the project.
Another thing to anybody that is going to take the pump off their truck and fix it: Check the timing pointers on the crank, timing advance window...
The part number of the (2) o-rings that are on either end of the timing advance housing are MS28775-235. There are a total of 2 o-rings per injection pump. While you have the timing advance off, check the pins for your centrifugal weights like I mentioned previously in this tread. Since you have...
Yes there is an o-ring that seals the advance housing to the main housing. There is another o-ring of the same exact size that seals the advance housing to cast iron piece that bolts the pump to the engine (so 2 o-rings of the exact same size seal both ends of the timing advance housing). My...
Well I got my truck back together with an LDS pump and and LDT hydraulic head. It turns out that the Code E hydraulic head works fine on the Code B LDS pump. Before I put the LDS pump on, My Dad and I (thanks for your help Dad!) took apart the timing advance just to check the timing advance...
I found this in the injection pump TM. I believe the weaker pin shown in this picture is the reason for timing advances come apart and blow holes in the side of the injection pump. This shows the pin style I have, Pin "A". Pin "B" must be an upgraded pin, less prone to failure.
You guys are a buzz kill. hahaha! Just kidding. Seriously though, I think if i had not caught the problem early, that weight would have gave way and eventually taken out the side of my injection pump. I have noticed higher than normal exhaust temps and it just did not seem to be like itself...
I got the injection pump off just about an hour ago. I pulled the governor housing off and it confirmed my theory of the governor coming apart. What happened was one of the pins that the weights pivot on, same out and rubbed against the case acting like a milling machine kind of. These pins look...
Well I tore into the Deuce last night. After the many discussions about what could have caused the small aluminum pieces/chips in my oil pan, I was more and more convinced that it must have come from either the injection pump or timing cover. Due to the size and shape of the chips, I was leaning...
Relax Sally... I will. I just want to make a good educated decision here. Ill have my injection pump fixed (if that is the problem) and my pop tested injectors in way before you get your bed crane mounted with 4 bolts anyway :wink: :beer:
Thank you for your pictures Mobileauto2000! The more I think about, this is what makes sense to be the problem with mine.
The two pictures you show looking inside the injection pump... could you definitely see something not right/broken in the injection pump? Did it make a funny noise or not...
Thank you. If you could tell me more about what you were experiencing and what you found I would appreciate it! I think I might have the same problem you did.
Oops, I double posted. If a moderator could delete this post and my previous double post I would appreciate it. I tried and did not see where I could delete it. Thank you.
How would I check to see what metal it is exactly? It appeared to be aluminum because of th color and non magnetic. It has been oily under the injection pump lately. I'll have to wipe it down real good and inspect the area to see if I see any cracks. If I see anything I would almost put my money...
