    Can’t get this to start…FIXED!!!

    I was summoned by the wife today to do leaf pick up. We own 20acres and about 4 of that is our yard, and 90% of our entire property is woods. We have a lot of leaves, which is an understatement haha. She said the leaves were more important and needed to be done, and the truck can wait…yes boss...

    #1 cylinder was on the compression stroke, both intake and exhaust valves were closed Unfortunately last night was just to cold to be in the garage so I didn’t get anything done. Maybe today while the sun is out.

    I stopped at another guys house about 20mins down the road where I’ve seen a deuce sitting and moving spots for years. The son wasn’t home but I talked to Dad for awhile and he said him and his son would stop over some day. I traded some of their multi fuel knowledge for them to cut some...

    I’ll have a chance to try again this evening. Got everything 100% back together last night, fuel line stuff that is. Tonight I should be able to bleed everything and see what happens

    Got all the fuel lines done and the filter head assembly mounted on the original bracket. Gently used my heat gun to help persuade the plastic tubing to bend and turn as needed. I just gotta spin on a filter and I’m ready to leak test. Then it’s time to try again…

    It could be possible, but why wouldnt fuel be squirting from the HH injector ports before those lines? I should have all the fuel lines done this evening, Napa guy came through early. But, I’m still short a fuel filter for the new filter head. I’ll have to pick something up tomorrow

    I reached out to a local diesel shop about costs. They actually refered me to a man who is the local guru with these pumps, and he works at an old tractor shop literally 0.5miles away from my house!!! We talked for a few minutes, I explained what I’ve done. He said it’s likely it needs rebuilt...

    I rewatched the Tactical Repairs videos that dealt with the FDC and the flame heater. Everything on my end is routed correctly. Like him I choose to remove the lines and use plugs. I will pull my plugs and reseal them just in case.

    Can’t get this to start…FIXED!!!

    I’m hoping to have all the new lines and filter assembly installed tomorrow evening. The local Napa guy didn’t have one 90 degree fitting I wanted, but he should have it tomorrow. I could have made something else work but more fittings and more $$ so I opted to wait a day or so, mainly so it...

    Wanted to share a little good news that’s somewhat related to this truck haha. Although I’m still working on the fuel system and that side of things. The original owner reached out to me. He has found a spare starter, multiple electrical connectors, the mushroom looking “precleaner” for the...
