hmm...it might be, not shure though it was a old farm truck that waas beat, so they most likley had no intention into building a high hp motor... i do know its a crate motor j block. so it has no EGR valve.
for the green wire, i think your right becouse the wire goes to the injecter pump, then to a accuater on the throttle linkage...
hey how should i mount my batterys? i was thinking that i could make a tool box, and put them inside that...
i heard that when batterys are charging they admit a gas, so not shure if i want to put them in the cab, and i really dont want to hack up my fender wells....so if i use the right guage wire do you think i can get away with mounting them in the bed?? i need to finish installing this motor so i can start working on it again
on more question, what should the compression be at, i found a brand new MAC diesel compression tester, with a gm style hook up

Like previously mentioned , the pink wire goes to the fuel solenoid on pump. The 2 green wires, one will go to the fast idle solenoid on injector pump linkage, the other to terminal by the pink wire, this one is for cold starts and bumps up the timing. The cold start switch that green wire power runs through is on the rear of r/s cylinder head next to exhaust manifold.

ok...hey when i turn over this motor, fuel comes out of the top of the iinjecter pump housing through the over flow, is it normal for it to be dumping out alot of fuel? or is it just becouse my pump probly isnt bled all the way?

hey guys, so i have it wired up so i can start it. and i have new glow plugs....and no suprise it still wont run, im prety much giving up hope on this. i dont get it, i keep trying to bleed the system, and turning it over, but nothing. ill crack the lines once in a while, and air and fuel will squirt out, but heres where it starts to not make sence... it will turn over, puff white smoke, almosed fire, enough to where its blowing black smoke, and stop....then when i got under the truck, i moved one of the exhaust pipe, and some raw diesel pored out of the pipe....so some how its not burning, or something.....i dont know what the deal is
i did a compression test...
#2,4,8 have 500 psi
#6 has 550 psi (im guessing maby oil/wd40 in cyl)
#1,3,5,7 have 500 psi
no clue if thats good or not
