    Basically, your right. Line everything up right. But do read the TM. It is clear and concise. One of the things you will learn about is the special tool needed to pull the IP. If you look in the TM upload section, you will find the plans to make one. Its a no brainer. And if you cant make one...

    Have you ever replaced an IP before? If not, do read up on it in the -24 TM. Take your time and don't cut corners. Timing the engine right the first time will save you many hours of frustration.

    Dude, I am a nag. Don't be offended. I nag everyone. I tell folks, that if you want to buy one of these things, FIRST, read all the operator manuals. Every word. THEN read most of the -24 manuals. Don't have to read every word, but skim through. That way you discover little things like there...

    I know I am going to sound like a nag again. But you need to read the book. In the operators manual it explains how this set works, When you turn S1 on, to the start position, a number of things happen. But the MPU drives them all. 1. The MPU tells the Electric gov. To start the engine...

    Another helpful hint is this. If you find a mag Pickup that fits the hole, it should work. They are all about the same.

    I would get a good MPU and install and adjust it. You can by one from trucking repair shops. There is a thread where 155mm had the same problem and where he bought his replacement. Perhaps Robert can also chime in here. Then give it a try. Since you have removed the actuator, keep in mind that...

    You are assuming. Don't assume the MPU is bad, till you test it. What you need to do is read the TM. But since you won't, try testing the MPU. Disconnect both wires from the MPU. Connect a multimeter to the wires set up for AC voltage. Have someone use the S10 dead crank switch to spin the...

    Robert, all TQG's have MPU's, and all are adjusted the same way. No mater what engine, same procedure.

    Any TQG that turns over, but not start, should have the MPU mesured for proper voltage, pulled, cleaned installed and adjusted. That is the very first thing I would do. That solves 95% of the no start problems.
