will do vic. I havent had a lot of free time lately, but I suspect something may be wrong with the pump. I will soak some more first

Well, upon installation of the pump, only one side pumps fuel I discovered. Further inspection/repair seems necessary. Are there any shops that will rebuild grey market pumps? My local guys wont touch it. Also, are there any internal engine parts available such as rings and bearings? I dont...

I actually keep kroil on hand for some old gun projects I have going, the gum cutter Ill have to look for. The chem dip is working, but it is very slow. went out and checked the pump, and its free! Slides under its own weight even. what a relief! Now im going to come home after work and...

thanks Birddogger, I didnt even think of kroil. Never heard of the other stuff, but Ill check my local parts places and see what I can come up with.

Can anyone recommend a solvent for soaking this pump? Ive tried pb blaster, diesel, and my chemdip carb cleaning solvent

good looking welds there ;)

lol, well its slowly freeing up, If I push hard with my thumbs, it moves through its travel, and thanks for the "definitive test", now I have a concrete goal. The pump is currently soaking in a gallon of pb blaster, which should penetrate better than plain diesel fuel. Im going to check it...

UPDATE! we may be getting closer! It appears after further disassembly, that my control rod in the pump is stuck. Its also stuck in a rear position, thereby not allowing the pump to come up out of the hole. the pump housing has a notch cast into it that allows the control rod pin to come out...

thanks very much for the detailed posts, and for taking the time to help me get my little chugger going. I think we are at no fuel coming out of the injector pump, but in the interest of being thorough (sp), Im going to reassemble, attempt a bleed again, then move on to pulling the pump and...

hopefully the pictures in my previous post will help somebody understand what I clumsily explained earlier. I.E. the missing fuel shut off, the boss and small coil spring that wont allow my pump to come out, etc. anyways, thanks everyone for the help so far, and keep the suggestions coming!

ok, having a little trouble pulling the pump. I got the spring unhooked on the inside of the housing, but my problem is with a lock-nutted set screw that goes through the housing, penetrates the housing, holds a small coil spring that slips into a round boss that goes into the pump (wow is that...

Ok, my first post and looking for some help. My z650 wont start- cause: no fuel to injectors things Ive tried: bleeding pump and lines at the injectors, pressurizing fuel system with electric pump. checked for free movement at fuel rack? I think. Under cover on side of injector pump total...
