Thanks guys, I think I will remove the #4 injector and Leave it connected to the line. Then I'll crank it to see how it is squirting fuel. While I have the injector out, I'll do a compression test on that cylinder to make sure the water didn't affect anything on the head side. If I get good...

Yes, I kept the same shims under the pump. The water is all out of the system. I have bled starting at the pump and then at the injectors. I'm just getting a dribble of fuel when I do the bleed. I will try bleeding again from the filter.

Ok, please excuse my dumbass, I guess I am not getting the concept of "timing" on a diesel. While I had the pump out I did rotate the engine so are you saying now that the timing could be off, meaning the injectors are "firing" at the wrong time?:confused:

Ok I got the pump back from the overhaul shop, he also had to salvage some of the injectors. Now I have it all back together and it still wont start. I have tried bleeding the lines at the pump and the injectors. I get a little out of them but seems to be steady. I do get smoke from the exhaust...

Well I finally got it out. The fuel rack was frozen in the forward (shutoff) position which meant that it was protruding out from the front part of the pump. That rack sticking out far enough to prevent the pump from coming out of the hole. After I managed to force it out I took off the little...

I have a B7800 and would like to put a step to make it easier getting on and off the tractor. Has anyone designed some custom steps for theirs? I had an M4700 several years back and it had steps to get into it. My knees ain't what they used to be.

I have seen several right ups that say that but it appears that a frozen fuel rack may be the problem. If this is true then the pump is locked into the shutoff position and I can't move it to allow the removal of the pump. Not sure what my next step should be? I have everything disassembled...

I have a B7800 that won't start. The solenoid clicks and the plunger pulls back when the key is turned on, but the plunger does not engage anything inside at the pump. I took everything loose from the fuel injector pump and it won't come out of the hole?
