Installed a pressure gauge in the final filter bleeder port. Electric pump makes 32 PSI. When I crank it the pressure dropped slightly. With the injector lines disconnected they dribble a little bit. I'm beginning to think that the high pressure booster pump is not working. With the electric...

Stayed up late reading on the forum and the TMs last night. Came out today and cranked it with the center plug in the hydraulic head removed and checked for vertical movement. It's hard to tell with the engine cranking and bouncing up and down, but I'd say it's moving up and down about 3/16"...

Disconnected one of the injector lines and ran it on starting fluid for 30 seconds or so. Only got a few little spits out of the injector line. Opened the drains and bleeders on all the fuel filters and got good pressure with the electric pump running.

Got it to run on starting fluid for a min, now to see why it won't run on fuel...

The starter screws had just rattled out. Put new ones in, cranked it quite a bit several times...no start. The diesel in the tank is very old...tried using carb cleaner for starting fluid, no start. Might drain some of the old diesel and replace with some gas, I figure it's more flammable and...

Got a 12v electric fuel pump rigged up. Still need to replace more lines.... I got curious about the starter running but not engaging so I pulled the little hat off the back. Lo and behold the screws that hold the rear section of the starter to the main body must have gotten loose. They don't...

No paperwork, but I might be able to lien it and register it green sticker (off road only) or Ag. I really just want a 6x6 for offroad goofing around in my local desert. Legit original military config doesn't really matter to me. However, if it's going to cost a bunch of time and money to get it...

So...it got back burnered again, until tonight. I put water in the radiator, it has a leak, as well as a leaky hose in the cooling system above the injection pump. Here in the desert, you can pretty much expect all the rubber to be crispy. The original wiring is corroded away, so someone had...

I'd love to see suspension/axle/steering pics...I'd like to build and 8x8 from deuce parts for offroading.

Yup. Most of AB is deuceable. Then there's Superstition, Truckhaven and Ocotillo wells...

Anyone thinkin about an outing?

Time flies... ...but what I posted still stands if anyone wants to do a run of some sort.

I know this is an old thread and I haven't been around but...bump.

These guys keep the deer, etc. alive in the desert out local to me and their water truck gets a lot of miles doing it. Any help for where to look, etc. much appreciated. Thank You

Much obliged

Pretty sure it's no vac. Willys Jeep Parts, Restoration - Fuel Pump Metal Top No Vacuum L & F Head 4 Cylinder - Walck's Four Wheel Drive, Walck's 4WD

Well, I'm below sea level....

I just realized I typed M38A!. Kinda funny. Thanks. Mine doesn't look anything like that. No priming lever. I don't need the vacuum but would like the priming lever. The one on mine looks like this...

I just got the family Jeep back. Pics and more later, tried posting last night and the thread went poof somehow. The last owner replaced the glass bowl pump that was in there with an off the shelf pump and let the jeep sit and it quit, presume it dried up. The old pump was in there for many...

Talked to him too, thanks
