    Mep802a fuel issue

    Something bent or not catching the rack every time. Look at the parts breakdown, ten thousand times to get it in your head, then take the covers off. Nothing else is going to help.

    Mep802a fuel issue

    I use carb cleaner to clean anything in the fuel system. Soak the parts a day or two. Blow everything off with compresses air. When you take the front and side panels off the engine, look to see if the IP's are actually in the rack right. They can be a real PITA to get in. Many times I thought...

    Mep802a fuel issue

    When you twisted the pump. you move it out of adjustment. If you want to take ONE injector pump out at a time, its easier to get them back in right. Taking both out at one time is not recommended. Also keep in mind that these engines are self bleeding, but sometimes are a PITA to self bleed...

    Mep802a fuel issue

    Its time to figure out just not what's wrong, but how it got wrong. If you have a blockage that far up in the fuel system, you have to ask how. Nothing should have gotten past the fuel filter, nor the water separator. It would behoove you to pull the top cover, (and have more room to see and do)...
