    Fuel filters or lack thereof and stalling.

    I got the gauges in today, so I'll grab some street elbows and other fitting and try to get time to install the gauges and see what my pressures are. Fuel wasn't leaking out of the delivery valve I had loosened it to see if fuel was getting that far in the HH, I thoroughly cleaned the HH, I put...

    Fuel filters or lack thereof and stalling.

    Well I hiked the tools in and got the HH back on right before it started flashing thunder and lighting. I tried to turn it over, I cracked the lines at the injectors but wasn't getting any fuel, so I pulled the center plug with the tank pump plugged in I was getting a better spray of fuel out...

    Well started cleaning the HH, so I go to remove the delivery screw and I'm getting ready to catch a flying spring and valve. I pull the screw and the spring is just sitting there so I pull it out, there is no valve under the spring! How was this even running without the part? Time for another...

    Fuel filters or lack thereof and stalling.

    Well I went down to the yard today and finished the fuel filter and hoses. 12ft of hydraulic line and a few handfuls of fittings later. I now a have a baldwin BF1258 (10micron) primary and a CAT 1R-0750 (2 micron) secondary spin on filters. Much easier to get. If I'm out on the road. Now I'm...

    Fuel filters or lack thereof and stalling.

    FDC was bypasses by toole depot in 1993 if the tag I found on the tie wire on the FDC was correct. Took me a while but I found a 1/2 OD inverted flare to NPT adapter so I've started replacing the lines with hydraulic hoses, more than a few copper lines were crushed.

    Fuel filters or lack thereof and stalling.

    The primary was in place, and when I pulled it I didn't see any water in the housing. It was the secondary and final that didn't get installed. The secondary and final housing weren't terribly clean when I pulled them. Yes the stalling after quick decel/stops was there but nowhere near as bad...
