Update....
It's still running like sh#$. Not much has changed except:
1) I started it and let it run longer- Foot to the floor and the rpm will not go over 700 rpm. Puffing medium amount of bluish smoke
2) I bought two fuel filters and just replaced them both. When I was removing the primary plastic one it broke apart. Look at what I saw inside (pic below). Full of rusty residue!! When I took off the canister secondary filter I could tell it was clogged as well. I poured it out and crap come out. I'm sure it was blocking up. Refilled them and started it up. Same thing - nothing changed
3) I tested the glow plug relay - good.
I was hoping the filters did the trick, but did nothing. Needless to say I will be pulling the diesel tank out to flush it all (once running)
I did notice there is a vacuum on the the top of the injection pump that was pulling down the "Stop" arm. When I pulled the vacuum line off , it popped up. Put it on and it pulled it half way down (pics). This was AFTER it turned off the car. (some built up vacuum). Not sure if it does this when running since I cannot see it. The first picture is with the vacuum on and the second with it off. You can see it on the right side a little.
I tried to start it with that vacuum disconnected - same
Read about the gas cap. took it off and tried again -same
Any thoughts????
Still thinking restriction again. I'm about to get my reciprocating saw and cut the exhaust off, but want to put some feelers out first
