I found that you need to make sure the crank and cam time are lined up to tdc compression stroke. Then rotate the motor until you see that you are going back into compression stroke cyl #1. Stop at 24° before tdc , if you dont have the pin follow the directions from the fsm to identify the timming mark. Once the pump is there its hard to bump it off unless your drunk or your doing the pee pee dance while trying to line up. Put the collar on the spline in the block (no marks to worry about just stick it in). Carefully slide the pump into the collar you just put on while paying attention to the factory chisel mark (line the marks up). Once the pump is inserted put a nut on the stud and dont stress about the pump moving around its ok. Put the rest of the nuts on finger tight then line the chisel mark back up and sinch down the nuts. Should be darn close to spec. but do the drip method at this point.
Im confident I did it right.

One question I hqve is. Can you do the drip test with all of the injection lines off?

I say yes because the Delivery Valves have their own Springs and they should be able to hold back the pressure from the Hand Primer as you pump it. But, I have never tried that before in the last 5 years on this particular type of Fuel Injection Pump.

However, you will be finding out soon.

Turning the Engine may cause Fuel to spurt out; especially if you use the Starter to do that.
