1855 injector pump

[MikeO-WI]

We tried the air trick and we did get fuel now coming out the injector return lines, however we are not getting anything out the injector compression lines. Looks like we will be taking this one out and replacing it with the pump from the old engine. Any tricks or things to watch for in replacing the pump. We will check out IT book but that doesn't always cover everything.

Thanks for the help so far

When you pull the pump off the shaft make sure you wire the throttle wide open so the governor components remain aligned. Keep it wired until you reinstall it in the shaft.

Didn't see that comment in the IT manual and didn't notice the label on the pump either. We got it transferred over with little or no problem without wiring open the trottle. Seems to run ok

Holding throttle lever against high speed stop makes sure weight sleeve and washer stay in place while shaft is out. If you are careful not to drop or jar pump with shaft out it is usually not a problem.
