Ford 3000 diesel rebuilt Simms injector pump - still fuel starved
UPDATE I was out to check out the tractor today and follow the outline I provided in the last post. After not being convinced the 'new' WIX filters were working properly I took both off, as well as the filter assembly. All ports were clean as a whistle. As we remounted the assembly and reset the... -

The rear wix filter appeared to be installed correctly. I did not check the front, but assumed it is installed correctly since the rear was installed correctly. Reprimed, started and ran for a little while then died. I did buy a couple of napa filters, although I have not installed yet. I... -

I have attached a sketch of the fuel line connections. I previously connected tank to lift pump to simms injector, tractor runs well. Connected tank to lift pump to filters and cranked it up and only a dribble came out of the filter discharge. Not like what came out of the lift pump. Plan to... -

Harry in KY - The filters are new wix installed by a diesel mechanic so, I have not checked them but will the next time out. I was hoping and assuming they were installed correctly. -

Destroked 450, what you’re saying makes some sense, although that’s not the way it was hooked up prior to new injector pump. Tank to lift pump, lift pump to rear filter in, front filter out to simms Pump. Just a dribble from filters when cranked. -

With pump connected to filter I get a dribble of fuel from the outlet side of the filter. Should there be more? I’m thinking it should be similar to lift pump flow. -

With tank connected to pump, then direct to injector pump tractor runs fine. So I’m guessing the tank shut off, pump and injector pump are all working properly. Now to check filters…. -

Ok, checking fuel filters now. For the dual fuel filters I know where the pump to filter line attaches- back inside ( arrow to filter) , back outside ( arrow out) is plugged. Front outside (arrow out) connects to injector pump. What does front inside ( arrow into filter) connect to? Doee we at... -

Yesterday I bypassed the fuel filters and connected the fuel tank to the primer pump then to the injector pump. The tractor ran well at high and low speeds and color in smoke essentially went away after the tractor warmed up. So, I believe the Simms pump is installed and timed correctly, now my... -

Hi, I am new to the forum and looked through 25 pages of existing threads, if someone can direct me I'll go that route. My problem is I've installed a rebuilt Simms injector pump that I picked up from England to "save money". I've installed it and believe I set timing correctly-- 19 deg btdc on...
