    Injection pump compatibility

    Sounds like a good plan. Sounds like you got the pyro covered the only thing I would add was get a new oil feed line to replace the old one when you exchange IP's

    Injection pump compatibility

    Well a lot of people are happy with an FDC bypass and a good tune a pyro on an ldt they're happy with the way they run. You can turn the fuel up on an LDT and it will outrun an LDS pump but the problem will be the heat. Also it seems like a lot of people don't even want to spin it up to 2600 in...

    Injection pump compatibility

    I think that 200 horsepower is a little unrealistic from just a rocker arm change. One of the reasons the LDS had to be spun at 2900 RPM to produce the higher HP.

    M35A2 runaway problem

    Possible you've got the fuel control unit assembly installed incorrectly or the timing shutdown rod cover?

    Glow Plug Tests with Manual GP Button

    Myself when checking glow plugs it's easier to leave them in. I disconnect the wire take a test light and hook the alligator clip to positive on the battery or any positive source and then with a point touch the end of the tip of the go plug and the light lights up the glow plugs good.

    Deuce first start prep

    Myself whenever working on a truck that sat a while or that I don't know I use a flat blade screwdriver and remove the timing shutdown rod cover and check the fuel control unit assembly is working free.

    Air Pack Questions

    If you have the stock vents that came on the truck then yes it should have had a slight positive pressure buildup. Inside the vent is a spring and a small piece of rubber. They were designed like that to keep a small positive pressure inside the housing so when they forded the truck it would...

    FDC Bypass Hose Question

    Got confused this thread was about bypassing the FDC and the hose and fittings required. Trying to think of what lines you're wanting to replace and if they're not leaking why replace them.

    Possibility of adjusting fuel and droop screw ELECTRONICALLY ON THE FLY? Maybe.

    Don't know if you're still interested in doing it but I googled small servos and found a 24 volt one with a built-in mounting flange. Problem is most of them are not waterproof. If I was going to do it I would do the solid cable push lock type.

    FDC Bypass Hose Question

    Instead of a long post it'll be easier if you went to Jeepsinker YouTube call tactical repair and watch it a couple times. And there's plenty other YouTube videos on bypassing the FDC and adjusting the fuel rate afterwards.

    FDC Bypass Hose Question

    Sorry I changed it yeah you caught me I said primary when I should have said final fuel filter. Whenever I use my phone and use the talk and text I usually mess up that and I don't prove read.

    FDC Bypass Hose Question

    If you're going to switch out to Synflex air line you have to buy two new DOT Synflex compatible fittings one for the head and one for the final fuel filter! Napa carries what you need. Final fuel filter gets a 90°, the head gets a 45°. Also don't be afraid to crank down on that nut as that...

    Hydraulic Head Question

    As far as the injector lines tips wearing out no. They're actually supposed to spin so whenever I'm doing an injector line I check to see if it spins. If I can't get it to free up or spin the best thing to do is put a little touch of grease on the part of the tip that meets the injector or the...
