Careful, the well up method is different from the Drip Method of timing.

Well, the verdict is in . . . delivery valves and plungers are bad in the pump, fuel is coming out at the wrong time, needs a rebuild. There's an $1100 we weren't planning on spending on the race car *ugh*

On a side note, we put the IP in from the parts car and still couldn't get the frigging thing timed right. Up on the trailer it went, into the local diesel expert. The timing was off on the donor pump by 62*, so they are resetting the timing on the pump, reinstalling everything and tuning it to the car. it's a bit on the expensive side, but we'll have a car that runs and has fuel delivered at the correct time. We might even reach the target 100 hp! So moral of the story, when you follow the instructions on the manual and fail repeatedly, call in an expert!
