Injection Pump: Installation

  1. To install, reverse removal procedure. Use a new "O" ring on drive gear end of injection pump. Install injector lines AFTER pump is installed. Lines must be installed in the following order: 2-7-1-3-8-4-6-5.
  2. Clean old sealant from injection pump elbow threads using clean solvent. Dry thoroughly. Start elbow into injection pump adapter, and then apply a light coating of Teflon pipe sealant.
  3. Apply a 1/8" (3 mm) bead of silicone rubber sealant in adapter housing grooves. Join components within 15 minutes of bead application. After this time sealant begins to set and its sealing effectiveness may be reduced.
  4. Use new "O" ring on injection pump fitting adapter. Purge injector lines by loosening connector 1/2 to one turn and crank engine until a solid stream of fuel flows from connector. Check and adjust injection pump timing.
