All but turbo shaft play has been tested and recorded. Descriptions and images to follow soon.

With the Drip Timing Method there is no locking Tool Used.
I am not sure your Year has the port in the side of the Governor for the Timing/Locking Pin.
In the Pic if you have a 17MM Plug where the Blue Arrow Points you have a port for the Locking Tool. The Red Arrows Point to the 2 screws that hold a separate Plate thet the Plug Screws into.
On the Older Model Pumps that cannot use that Timing Locking Pin there is no Separate Plate and there is a smaller Plug directly screwed into the Governor Housing Casting.
No matter what timing method you use put a mark acrossed the Block and the Fuel Injection Pump Mounting Flange so you can return the Pump to the original positon if you are having problems.
