    I Want to replace my leaking IP, Or get it re-built.

    Removing the air filter didn't work. I'll be contacting AMBAC for assistance with this. I'll let you know what happens with them. thanks Mike Bogner

    I Want to replace my leaking IP, Or get it re-built.

    Gary, I took out the fuel line that feeds into the HH and turned on the power. lots of fuel flowing out into bucket. So I've got fuel to the IP. it still smokes way more than it ever did before. The IP I installed is a remanufactured one from AMBAC & I was told it has a 1 year warrantee. I'd...

    I Want to replace my leaking IP, Or get it re-built.

    Well it runs.... but only after I give a second or two shot of starter fluid at least 2x before it lights off every time when cold. Its a little hard to start when hot but will start after cranking on it. It smokes way more than it did before the new IP. I replaced all the fuel filters and bleed...

    I Want to replace my leaking IP, Or get it re-built.

    Got it started this morning. After the second 1 second shot of "starter fluid" from Pep Boys I was able to keep it running. Took it for a ride around the old El Toro USMC air station where I have it parked. Smokes a lot more but I figured its because the existing fuel was contaminated with all...

    Did That just like in the pix that Gimpyrobb attached on the 1st page of this post. I didn't however purge the lines at the injectors of air... I assumed that cranking over would push the fuel into the injectors.... I'm kinda thinking this is the issue.

    I Want to replace my leaking IP, Or get it re-built.

    I got the remanufactured IP installed & replaced all the lines to the injectors with new ones. I've got everything else connected or reattached & set the timing according to the pictures that Gimp posted on the first page for my LTD-465-D... won't fire... Do I need to bleed all the injectors?.....

    I flipped the pix & zoomed in. I see the LD/LDS line. I also found the pointer on the left side of the engine. took off the injector lines today. I might replace all of them. Got the remanufactured IP from AMBAC, came with a 1yr warranty. Do I need do place dust covers on the new lines? Thanks

    I don't have a better picture at this time. Is this one I've attached the correct timing marks? Right between the 2 lines? Thanks
