Injection pump timing 1987 TD Wagon
Okay here goes I just got my head back and bolted it all back together, and I replaced the timing chain and moved the crank bolt forward and fed the new chain through attached of course to the old one.
Now when I was feeding it through the IP pulled wound up and then pulled on the timing chain felt like alot of tension then released ect. I do not know how to adjust the IP and am wondering if I now have to pull the timing cover all apart to set the IP timing??? I have not put the cam back in yet for obvious reason . Any help would be very appreciated in this matter. George |

Between the rotational springiness of the IP, IP timer and vacuum pump it's normal for the chain to bunch up and quick-feed as you roll in a new chain. As long as you didn't loosen the bolts that hold the IP to the block, IP timing didn't change. As a rough check, set the crank pulley to 15* ATDC and pull the 17mm head bolt from the side of the IP. Run a wire or small screwdriver vertically in the hole in the side of the IP to feel for a protrusion. If the protrusion is more or less centered in the hole then your IP timing is close to spec. If you can't feel a protrusion, give the crank pulley a full turn and try again. You can do a better job of positioning the protrusion if you have an IP locking tool. You can do an even better job if you have a factory A-B light tool (~$300).

603 injection pump timing issue
gvanhouten,
Did you ever get the 603 pump to time right? It surprises me that nobody offered any help. Maybe the post got over looked. I have a SDL body and wondered if a 617 will run in a 1987 body? The junk yard wants to give me about $30.00 for the whole car (body only), but I was wondering if I could drop a 617 in it and get it running good enough to get it out of the yard to a new owner, who might could get good service out of it with a 617. Cracking heads and no information on how to time the 603 has been a nightmare for me. BenzDiesel |
