Solved. I hate reading through trouble threads and never finding out what the solution was. In my case, the sluggishness was caused by a slightly sticky fuel rod AND mostly I think that the fuel screw adjustment was out of whack on the bypassed FDC. I swapped my old FDC on (which had old...

Ive pulled radiator and valve cover to ensure the timing is spot on at TDC (taken radiator out twice to make sure). I cannot find a procedure to set droop but think that is my next step (based on my searches). Can someone point me to specific TM or a walkthrough post?

To update: Fuel tank is spotless and new filters. Fuel pressure A-OK per rustystud (thanks!). Injection pump is NOS off ebay. Verifed timing at Harmonic Balancer, IP, and HH. Symptoms: Hard to start. Must monkey with the Go Pedal to get to fire off and monkey some more to find idle...

How do I turn up the fuel if I decide to just go rogue and see what happens?

Checking in. I really suck at this. 1. Pulled radiator to put breaker bar on front bolt just to be sure. Put pointer on front pulley marker per FSM for LDT 465 C (I have LDT 465 D but should be the same). 2. Checked window on injection pump. Its spot on the mark. 3. Pulled cover...

I have new pump. Boiled out and Acid Dipped Fuel Tank Changed all Filters. Added Diesel Kleen. Full tank of Diesel. Its not running like poop because its been sitting. I have performed all of the above just a couple months ago. Refreshed all of the fuel system I can think of.
