Meant to say FAMILURE.... lol

Hey Tim! Ehhhh....not really...kinda ball parked it....it's about at factory give or take....but is back to running great....thankfully! Lol when I get a chance I'll bump it up a bit but since wifey drives it, there's no rush.... Lol

And there's some good food at Tim's house too!!! Lol. I'll add my name to the list....I'm on Long Island....and have pretty much any tool EXCEPT a scanner.....Tim bought my Snap-On and someone else got my Tech2.....but I'm failure with Obd1 & 2. Have some manuals too.... Tom

Thanks!!

On a side note.....the metal cover/ body of the solenoid was loose as though it was either hitting against something or someone previously used it to turn the pump while setting timing.....never seen that before....but the more that I think about it the more I think it was all caused by the...

Problem was two fold.....somehow the nuts holding the injection pump backed off completely and the pump of course went out of timing AND the fuel shut off solenoid went south....I see no logical reason for both to happen at the exact same time except that when the pump loosened up maybe the...

Thanks for the offer....I may try to get in touch with him, or borrow my old MT2500 from Turbine Doc, or maybe just wait until after you get back since this week is gonna be very hectic for me anyhow due to work.... Tom

Got the new solenoid in....truck started and ran perfectly....yippie! Lol Ran for a bit and checked for codes....none....now I just need to verify injection pump timing.....but at least she's back on the road! Thanks for all the replies! Tom

You and me both!!! ;)

Never tried but I did hear about that once before....should have a new one by Friday.....I hope... :o

Here's an update....after much checking and rechecking I found the fuel shut down solenoid to be not working....Bill Heath had mentioned that he could count on 1 finger all the solenoid failures he's encountered, but I guess now he can use 2 fingers.... Lol. Anyhow, I got the pump back where...

Thanks!

Awesome....THANKS LOUIS!!! Tim aka Turbine Doc did tell me to look you up....might take you up on that offer! :) As far as I can tell and from the opinions of a few good people that I've spoken to, like Bill Heath, my engine timing should be fine and I'm looking at either a ground issue or a...

Thanks Slim!

Ok....been a while since I did one... Haha I'll look into car code...thanks! Tom

Yup...checked for codes....the only one was for timing out of spec which is to be expected....no other codes, no smoke, just a real crappy and low idle with no response from the accelerator at all. No other leaks or anything else found so far, just the loose pump. I've always been on top of...

THANKS MIKE!!

I actually use to do business with Mike from there when I had my shop....may just give them a call....but I kind of wanted to do it myself....I doubt they'll lend any stuff out....

CRD owners this far east are rare! Haha. Do you know any "locals" with scanners/tools for the 6.5's? Had the pump flange nuts loosen up on me yesterday causing the pump to back out....and I sold all my 6.5 stuff a long time ago....so now I'm kind of stuck..... :( p/s....I'm in the Smithtown...
