    I don't think you need new ones. Just clean ones. Patience. Give it a chance.

    The IP's can be taken apart. Just take a look at one, and its easy to do. Then soak them. This is a common problem with any equipment that has sat for long time periods. But certinly not a show stopper.

    If you loosen the fuel delivery line to the IP, and fuel comes out, then tighten it back up and loosen the line to the injector, and nothing comes out, then the IP is not working. This is a very common fault for sets that have not been run in a long time. What you need to do is pull the IP's...

    OK, you have it at 2.8-3 VAC and that's good. Lock it down. Now, you said the fuel cut off solenoid, (L5) pulls back, and holds. That's good. You also said that the Electric fuel pumps run? You also said you had bled the fuel system. So lets start here. I know you bled the system, but lets try...

    If you are only getting 1 volt AC, its not far enough into the hole. Screw magnetic pickup (7, FIGURE 2-25) into flywheel housing until pickup bottoms out on flywheel. Back magnetic pickup out 1-1/2 turns and finger tighten nut (6). Connect electrical connectors and remove tags. Adjust...

    I assume, not always a good thing, it gets me in deep almost every time, but assume you followed the TM. Bottom out the MPU, then turn it out 1 and a 1/2 turns back out. Now, try and screw it a tad deeper into the bell housing. Not much, a tad. Then test it again. Someone cranks the set at the...

    You can mesure for VAC directly at the two wires on the MPU. Always start there, because you could have a wire problem.

    What you are testing is the continuity of the wire wrapped about a billion times around a magnet in the MPU. If you get no ohms, or a bad reading, then its no good.

    I think you should have about 950 ohms when mesuring between the leads. Open TM9-6115-642-24. Turn to PDF reader page #169. Start reading how to properly reinstall the MPU. The closer to 3 VAC you are, the better. BUT DO NOT go higher.
