So, I need some advice, and maybe some hands-on assistance. The IP on my 1009 is non-functioning for the time being. Here's the situation:
Had leaking seals on the the throttle shaft. Got the parts and replaced them. No problem there.
Problem is:
1. Had a foreign object (small gasket?) blew into the open pump. Can't get it out. How much trouble is this going to cause? Solutions?
2. One of the three IP cover bolts was broken off just above the surface. Can I risk JB Weld or just use the other two bolts to keep the cover on?
3. The roller clamp on the pssgr side of the throttle shaft also broke. I can almost certainly get a replacement for a few bucks from Northeast Diesel (Stanadyne shop in Blue Springs).
4. I've never messed with an IP removal/change out before. Am I going to mess up the timing if I remove it and/or replace it- are there any special considerations?
Options I'm considering:
-the bare minimum- replace the broken clamp, ignore the broken cover bolt and risk the foreign object. I only drive locally, so if it dies, I'm not completely stranded.
-second option is replace the IP with a take-off I can get for about $100.
-third option is remove the old IP, flush the object, take it to a machine shop to drill out the broken cover bolt (not going to risk this myself), and of course replace the broken clamp.
-fourth, leave it in the driveway until next month when I can afford a rebuilt pump.
Any of the options other than the first, though, I'm going to need some help from somewhere, to remove and reinstall the IP.
Advice, opinions, etc????
