    M1009 shut off like ran out of fuel

    Another even easier way, if you have a vac gauge, attach to the vacuum pump hose, crank engine, no vac, = no cam rotation, no run. . . disclaimer: unless your vacuum pump is bad. . . ;)

    M1009 shut off like ran out of fuel

    You can pull the oil filler tube off the front of the motor and look in the hole on the front of the timing cover and see if the gear is turning. easier than pulling a valve cover. . .

    M1009 shut off like ran out of fuel

    Well, the solenoid sounds like it's working. I'd bet the IP let go. Does the motor crank over exactly as it did before the shut down?

    M1009 shut off like ran out of fuel

    Turn the key to the run position and disconnect the big red wire from the IP, you should hear a click as the solenoid de-energizes, also if you have access to a meter with the key off you should read 4-5 ohms across the coil of the solenoid on the IP. I just checked this on my civy suburban with...

    M1009 shut off like ran out of fuel

    If you keep spraying ether in there it's gonna detonate on the glow plugs and really ruin the engine. Sounds like the solenoid on the IP is gone, not letting fuel to the injectors.

    Compressor metal in engine

    The bottom of the Compressor is open directly to the pan, similar to the connecting rods, and mains, depends on how long the motor was run before the dead compressor was noticed. Hopefully the filters kept the small pieces from circulating back through and taking out soft metal. :-(

    Compressor metal in engine

    Well, during a compressor changeout people have been known to RTV over the passage that supplies oil to the compressor. . . I don't know of a good way to check other than cranking the motor over until evidence of oil appears at the supply hole on the base plate where the compressor mounts. After...
