I do not know what this problem is. He is thinking pvc valve is bad... I am offered working used Inj pumps for $125 here. On top of these things I am 700 miles away in Florida.. I do not mind coming up to NC to pick up a good deal, but right now it is not sounding like this is one. Thinking offering less, and staying up there until I can get it roadworthy to drive it back home ....  |
I have first hand experience with rescuing a veggie burner, this is not a get it working and drive it home type fixes....you will need to trailer it and spend the rest of your life fixing the veggie mess....If I got it, I would first start by replacing the lift pump....dropping the tank and cleaning out all hard lines and taking the tank to a radiator shop to have it boiled out....then I would see how it ran with the original IP and injectors....you might be able to get it going just fine but then again the IP might already be destroyed......on my car I had to replace every piece from the tank to the injectors.....don't buy a used IP, if you don't know where it came from....go to pick n pull....and buy one for 50$....when you go to pull it check the spin on and what's left in the IP....and make sure its diesel......now you also have to remember the rings may be destroyed too.....it takes many many many many many many and many oil changes, filters and valve adjustments to clear the gunk from the engine..
