Have one of these that won't fire after sitting all winter. Does anyone know the procedure for bleeding? Cranking over but not smoking. Injectors seem to be under rocker cover. Fuel solenoid seems to be activating. Thanks in advance
Nobody with any experience on these ?
I might have a manual for one at work. Let me check tomorrow when I get to the shop
Appreciate it. Thanks
Can you give more info there are a couple variations of it. Maybe a serial number?
Serial number PE4024T066153. What else would help? Thanks
That limits it down pretty good. There is an electronic version of this but this is the mechanical version. To bleed it all there is is to do is pump the hand primer with the bleed screw on the filter base open. Have you checked for a positive air shut off? Check fuel pressure at the final fuel filter. If you have good fuel pressure to the engine then it could be something inside the linkage in the front cover. I have seen the pin fall out of the linkage causing the rack to stay at no fuel. Could be a spring broken on the individual injection pump- seen that too. If you dont have good fuel pressure then it could be the fuel transfer pump on the side of the engine or the check valve on the back of the head. It shouldnt be too cold for it to start by now I think you guys are out of the -40s you had earlier this winter.
Send me an email address. I can send you a link to my dropbox and that manual is in there.
Haha No its a little warmer now. Will check your suggestions. Thanks for taking the time to reply
