Good tip! Were the delivery valves very dirty? This is on your 617 motor? There are no o-rings in there? What is the procedure for cleaning the delivery valves, and the torque prcedure?

I replaced the usual suspects and nothing worked.

I removed the delivery valves and cleaned them and now idles very smooth.

Do not be too quick to replace your pump, check the delivery valves first if you already checked injectors, rack damper bolt, timing.
