    M1028A3 new project

    The truck started for the first time today. I have a fuel leek under the injection pump, one fuel line is leeking. I thought I tightend them well but didn't. Looks like the bottom line so the intake needs to come back off. The motor sounded well and alternators are charging.

    Today I removed the glow plugs, loosened the injector line at injectors. I have fuel at most injectors, not a lot but at least some. My battery's tested good after charging, but one goes low after only a few attempts at cranking. I will need to replace them but I need to hear this truck run...

    I broke the tab off the idiot light sending unit in the block. I ordered a new part GM 25037177. Thank to rain I am unable to work today, I need a rest. I have read posts on how long it takes to change out pumps, it took me 4 days trying my best.

    MEP-803A inside an S-280 Shelter

    I think that will work fine. I want to do the same type set up with my generator and air compressor. Keeping equipment out of the weather and a dry place to work on it is a good thing. Also helps keep noise down.

    I have a nos injection pump head and rotor pn 31816. I have searched and not found info on swapping just the head. I charged the battery and will take them for testing they are a few years old. I also ordered replacement cab corners and rocker panels.

    I am so sore and stiff today from a combation of rain and working under the truck yesterday. I am trying to find someone to help as I really cant do this type of work anymore. I have ordered starter braces, injectors and all rubber fuel and vacuum lines. I still need the in tank sock filter.

    I was able to partly remove the starter and see the flex plate teeth. I found the starter brace was missing. I was unable to remove the inspection cover, The bolts would not budge, they may have been Loctite. The teeth that I can see don't look bad but I need to turn the engine over.

    I got the truck home and had a chance to look it over . I had my daughter take photos of the truck and the tags we hope to post them shortly. I cleared a bunch of scrap lumber from the box and finely got to go inside it.
