Re Installing Injection Pump....

[cooljjay]

Well I need big time help, I need to reinstall an injection pump.

Heres the low down, I bought a really nice 1978 300D, that wouldn't start. The last owner had a VW mechanic pull the ip pump...then do no other work...So I bought it...now I need help.

I've read a ton of stuff on the internet and the forums about removal etc but nothing really on installing. Here is what was done, the guy just removed the oil filter housing and then pulled the IP. He didn't set the engine to 15 atdc, that I hear needs to be done nor did he lock the ip pump. He told me all I had to do was match up the spline to the gear in the engine and re bolt it on. I doubt this is the case. Theres also a collar that was on it, that slid on the ip then onto the gear in the engine. He also didn't mark the ip...so it will need to be timed too.

Well I just need help, advice. I know it shouldn't be to difficult but since I didn't pull it...that makes it difficult...I need to get it all together to fine out what the real problem is
