Great idea! What kind of axle did you use?

Got mine also, Thanks!

Looking for a Electronic Engineering Technology (EET) technician E5 or above near the Northern KY area. I have a wiring diagram / wiring work that I am struggling with and could use some help. I am willing to pay for your time and expertise of course. PM for details. Best regards, Josh

I will take one also if the order hasn't already been submitted.

It's running like new and producing electricity! Thanks for all the help fellas. I really appreciate it! I couldn't have done it without the knowledge provided on this website.

Thanks Guyfang, I will give that a shot tomorrow morning.

So I did the timing line up procedure and then bleed the fuel lines. When the generator attempts to start it blows a little white smoke then a heavier black smoke as it is trying to start then dies out and the starter is still cranking. Doesn't seem like it is wanting to start. Is there a...

Thanks Ray! I will report when it's running.

Yeah I didn't set the #1 PC before I took the pump off. Where is the hole in the pump in reference to looking at the pump in the installed position? I know that the # 1 Cylinder is on the blower side. Am I correct in assuming that the longer rocker arm is the intake valve and the shorter rocker...

I am going to install the rebuilt injection pump today. Do I need to do anything as far as timing goes? I have read that if you line up "PC" mark to ensure that the number one cylinder is top dead center. Not sure exactly what I need to do to make sure that it runs properly.

Great idea! I will try that!

I thought it was interesting that American Bosch was made in Italy as well. The internals are identical to the Ambac 50 model. The generator this pump came off of is a 1983 model. I think the hardest part of this rebuild for me is going to be getting the spring compressed where I can put in the...

The pump that I have uses a plunger guide. It was broken when I took it apart.

I think I have the PSU

I was having an issue getting the internal components apart. The guide pin was gummed up and I just tapped it out with a punch and rubber hammer. I took off the 1 inch cap screw, small spring, and metering valve and seal and put the punch in there and tapped it out.

Hey Ray, I was flying yesterday so I was unable to respond. I have the American Bosch pump best that I can tell. I don't see the set screw you are referring to but I do see the boss. I might be able to sand the Brass washer smooth where it is acceptable. I will have to look at it again today. I...

Okay I finally got it apart. I had to drive out the center rod / plunger with a punch and rubber hammer. I found a broken thrust washer. I'm guessing I need to call Ambac on Monday and order the orange seal in the thread listed above or a rebuild kit. Mine doesn't look like it's in great shape...

Somehow I double posted this. Please delete.
