I guess we don't get to start calling Jeremy, 8V of Prothery yet tho. lolHe had it all the way apart, and back together, and it runs fine now.Maybe he needs to go be Prothe's new shop supervisor.
You know, I wonder if thats why most of prothes pumps do not run, he puts the shafts in 180 off lol nevermind the chineese delivery valves and distributor crap.
its WAY easy to put these pumps back together 180* out..the cam plate can be installed in either TDC position, or 180* out of time..dont feel bad Jer.. siht happens.. ALL THE TIME!
IMO, it's easiest to make sure everything is correct by installing the pump top last. When the top is still off, it is very easy to rotate the pump and make sure everything is moving correctly. During that rotation, stop when the keyway of the mainshaft is pointing UP. You can then look at the plunger foot at the same time and see the cutout in it that indexes with the pin in the camplate. This obviously doesn't work if your assembly sequence ends with installing the distributor head and plunger.

The paper-wad test joins the list of things to check from now on.
