    Actually not a headache at all, but the adventure. I'm sure we all realize that this government surplus is a crap shoot (not dice). I love working out these kind of challenges. It is a big reason I went down the MV path. I love being in the Lowe's plumbing department looking for parts to...

    Pressure washing the fuel tank worked beautifully. Put two street elbows at the end of the pressure washing wand to reach the nooks and crannies and the inside top of the tank. Much to my surprise M.O.M.'s generator, lathe and compressor work perfectly. It took a couple of minutes to figer out...

I got one injector out but I really need to have apuller to get the others out. I'm going to see if I can get...

    I went as far as I could go. I dropped the IP off at a diesel shop. The guy says he has experience with Bosch pump locked up rack gears. He said it is actually froze up pistons. Me thinks it is a case of bad oil and sitting for so long. B.T.W. I have never seen so many mud dobber nests in my life.

    I apologize for the jumbled and run together text. I noticed on an earlier post that after I spell check It scrambles everything. I have to go back and fix it.

    I very much appreciate the time yourspending to help me, Thank you. Our start up lists are exactly thesame. But I didn't replace manual prime pump. I took it apart andcleaned it. I didn't notice any bleed screw on the fuel input area ofthe IP. I did crack the fuel line at the pump and bleed...

    Here is the picture of the crank case tumor:-D. The other picture is pointing to the IJ rack gear. I assume you should ba able to gently push it back and forth. Crorrect me if I am wrong. Please correct me on this, You should get fuel out of the port on top where the pump to injector tube goes...

    Made good progress yesterday in-spiteof having to give several army truck tours. Gota keep the neighborhappy. Was able to separate the governor assembly from the pump bodywith the pump still attached to the engine. It appears that the rackgear is locked up in the fuel off position. The next...

    I too off the lift pump dissembled, cleaned and reinstalled. Didn't see anything remarkable. There is defiantly fuel running through the IJ via the lift pump. Removed #1 feed tubed and cranked, nothing. The chances of what ever is wrong is times 6 is possible but not likely. The question is...

    Having studied the Tm's I decided to bite the bullet and attack the injector pump. Taking it step by step with the final solution being replacing the pump. The second major step to this goal is tilting the cab. The TM gives great step by step instructions. I already did the first step, removing...

    I'm trying to get my MOG running. It is obvious it hasn't run for many many years. The fuel smells like burnt gear oil. The tank is badly varnished. I've cleaned the sediment bowl, replaced the two fuel filters and blew out the line from the tank end to the input side of the filter housing. The...
