Long test drive Final update on this problem. Seattle Injector found that a lever-type part inside the hydraulic head had broken and caused the IP to quit working. I took the truck south to Puget Sound on the Alaska Ferry and it seemed to run good. I was still running the WMO/diesel oil mix...

I really don't know if the WMO contributed, but I am doubting it. There are too many folks here that are running even straight WMO. I filtered all of this oil multiple times using a 1 micron filter and a water separator. Then it still had to pass through primary and secondary fuel filters...

Just an update on this problem. I was able to get a new hydraulic head from a guy in Olympia, WA. (He deals in Buda diesel parts so some of them must use the same pump). Anyhow, got home last night and went to work on the M35A2 this afternoon. The hydraulic head gears did have a tooth that...

Sorry, thought I had updated! I pulled the hydraulic head and found the plunger seized in the barrel and the thrust foot/keeper dropped off. I am waiting for a new HH now.

news on troubleshooting multi-fuel that quit Just an update. I mixed my first tank of WMO (highly filtered) 20 gall to diesel 30 gall. The truck idled for 5 -10 minutes at the garage and then ran about 3 blocks before it just quit. It did not stutter, it did not lose revs, it just quit. I...

In this case it was all Chevron Delo 400, which is not synthetic, but it is something to remember for the future. I will get back to working on the truck on tuesday.

Thanks for the ideas! I suspect Gimpyrobb is right. I was waiting on changing the fuel filters till I had run some WMO mix through them. Today was my last day at home before going back to my ship, so I just flat ran out of time to troubleshoot. I did check that I had fuel at the top of the...

I tried my first tank of WMO blend today and engine shut down after three blocks. I filtered the WMO through 1 micron filter and water separator. Good looking batch of lube oil that came out of a CAT engine I manage. I mixed 20 gallons of WMO with 30 gallons of straight diesel. Engine has...
