July 1: So it begins. Don't worry, this is not in the correct legal jurisdiction!

Injection Pump Timing

  1. Engine is properly timed when marks on top of injection pump adapter and pump flange are aligned. See Fig. 7  . If marks are not aligned, adjustment is necessary.
  2. With engine off, loosen 3 pump retaining nuts with Injection Pump Wrench (J-26987). Align mark on pump with mark on adapter and tighten nuts to 18 ft. lbs.
NOTE: Use 3/4" wrench on boss at front of pump to turn pump while aligning marks.
