Injection Timing, WTF? Help needed

[Mark(The Miser)UK]

Thanks,

I am using the hole up front, closest to the radiator. I still cant rotate the pump enough to make the hole big enough. i have about .010 adjustment in moving the pump. it feels like the pump does not want to move at all.

I guess i am looking at the bigger picture, and need more info. Are these pumps hard to move with the bolts free and how much adjustment is in them when they are able to move?

Should the massive amounts of diesel smoke be concerning when trying to start, is the a sign of the injectors, good or bad. And is it hindering my starting?

On the locking pin, i used it only to set the pump cam and crank all to tdc. then the pin was removed after the cam bolt was tight.

Have you loosened 4 bolts?

Yeah, i lossend them all. It turns out.

I completly started over, and re did all of the timing. go the pump set spot on. Still would not fire. backed out the fuel screw and put it back in. trying to see if it was to much fuel. Ended up sticking propane torch on the intake runners to see if i could get warmmer air in there.

Got a little pissed off and beat that little clamp off the fuel screw. screwd it a half turn in and she purred like a kitten.  Whatever....im happy it runs. but still have something else going on. Got some blue smoke out the tail pipe, and i opend another disscusion on that.

Im guess as far as the timing goes, i must have been a tooth off or stupid...one of the two.

Wonder how its gunna start once i put a turbo on it.

So you did have to take the belt off and move the IP sprocket a tooth? I just want to get a solution on this for others who might come across the same issue. These discussions have helped me out a TON.

Glad it's running for ya!

I started completly over...dont know what i did right, but it runs now.

Pump was twisted way out of time. so i may have been off a tooth
