They can not pull fuel from the tank if air is in the system. If the pump was working and then stopped, the truck will pull fuel through. But if there is any air in the system you need the in tank pump to get the truck running.

Your best bet is to pull the glow plugs and crank the engine until you get fuel misting out of the glow plug holes. Then install GPs and crank over. Easiest way to bleed the system.

When I adjust my brakes, I just do 15 thousands gap top and bottom. TM calls for 20 top and 10 bottom. Lmk if you need a hand with this. Still got my number?

I like the bypass fuel line. Could you post a part number for that check valve?

DH and I were talking last night and think the two issues are related. I'd first worry about the fuel leak.

Yes they are worth it in my opinion. PM me a phone number and I'll try to answer all your questions.

So as it turns out the nut has broken off the fuel control lever. This means the governor isn't controlling the fuel control shaft anymore.

As we've discussed on the phone, I believe its a governor issue. Maybe rustystud (https://www.steelsoldiers.com/members/rustystud.32597/) will see this thread and post up. I know he has been through the IPs in depth, maybe he has an better idea than I do.

Do you mean copper or aluminum? I would imagine whichever is rated at the highest temp, but definitely use some! (as a dear mechanic friend once said, any is better than none!)

I probably have one at the barn. Let me see what I can dig up.

Doesn't play for me. I get audio, but no video!

Piss on that manual crap! Get yourself a hydraulic bead breaker. I'll never go back.

I got this a while ago from a buddy. I believe its a turret guard. The numbers look like 6w728 6431499-200m1

I checked high and low yesterday. I have intakes all over, but no Exhaust manis. wtf, sorry.

Check the ends of that tow bar. IT IS NOT A MEDIUM TOW BAR! I'm betting thats why its got no feet with it.

I still have a few filter sets available. They are the FM100 style, so, a water in fuel sensor is available and so is the heater. I just don't have either of those here to sell with the kit. Ebay should have them but I bet any stanadyne dealer should be able to locate them for you.

Get a pyrometer and if you aren't hitting 1200* turn up the fuel. If you are hitting 1200* take your foot out of it!

If he doesn't, I probably do.

Dig in and find out what the issue is before you spend any money or waste time on collecting parts. You'll be time and money ahead.
