    8V92 Coughs but Won't Start (SOLVED!)

    they are also pretty easy to remove, disassemble and clean too. care must be taken on adjusting the fuel rack.....its been 40 years since Ive messed with them. I did it in the kitchen (clean stainless tables) of Moores Riverboat Restaurant years ago, for the owners old Lima crane dredge he used...

    did you physically check to make sure the fuel pump is actually pumping fuel yet?

    8V92 Coughs but Won't Start (SOLVED!)

    you could also pop the line off the fuel pump discharge and make sure there is flow, then work your way to the injectors.

    8V92 Coughs but Won't Start (SOLVED!)

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    chained up 4 wheels today as the snow just keeps coming. I usually put chains on the front, and one set of singles on the rear/front tires outboard. Never needed any more than that. maybe I'll get to try out the apocalypse plow this year.

    air governor

    the governor's working. I wanted to test it thinking maybe it could be stuck in the unloaded position without air pressure. Mine is fine. after removing the ice from the line, everything is fine. I started it up every day now and then bleed the tanks a little. No moisture comes out. Before I had...

    air governor

    where else would you install it? I got the compressor, governor, and 2 air tanks in series. I assume the air dryer's job is to remove the moisture before entering the air tanks. I could install it after the air tanks and just bleed off the moisture manually like I do out of habit before I got...

    air governor

    well, I plumbed it according to instructions. its fine now. if it does it again, ill replace the 36 inch nylon line to copper, then I can heat it if needed. problem solved. its high enough not to get damaged from brush and debris.But first I'll rewire the internal bendix heater to come on when...

    air governor

    compressor straight to the air dryer, then to the first tank, then the second. that was according to the instructions that came with the dryer. Im going to add a "T" right off the compressor with a cap so if I ever need to add a little Bacardi 151, it will be easy to do. the Nylon line to it is...

    air governor

    good question....and then Bendix does nothing to prevent it since its before the inlet. My compressor intake is piped to the air filter housing. Must be the weather here.

    air governor

    there was a ice cube about 2 inches long in the air supply line at the air dryer. If I used copper, instead of that famous plastic/nylon crap, I could have heated it up yesterday with my propane torch instead of laying on the frozen ground becoming a ice cube myself.

    air governor

    no air bleeding out the purge/sneeze valve. I'll have to take the inlet hose off after I plow today
