I put a spring on the lever temporarily, i will fit a bowden cable later

I managed to get this old girl running now. I did not need the linkage or selanoid, I swapped the diaphragm cover from the damaged pump, secured the stop lever in run position and its working fine

I had a problem initially, when I turned the key to activate the glow plugs I got nothing,, but when I turned to start I got power to the glow plugs. After cleaning the switch contacts it started to work. Starter wiring is covered in plastic protection so I cant get a useful photo.

hi Duncan, I had the injector pump (old type) off again to solve an oil leak, timing is real easy. no need to set tdc , just pull the pump, clean the timing gear through the hole and you will see a line marked on 1 spline of the gear, when refitting the pump align that mark with the one on the...

Cheers, that helps. I guess the cylindrical part is the overfuel selanoid. Where did that connect.

hi Duncan, I fitted the pump then found no4,5 and 6 plungers in the pump seized, causing the rack to be seized shutting off the fuel. so off it came and onto the bench. I managed to free off everything without upsetting calibration. Refitted and timed the pump, bled the fuel system and boom it...

that is what the Aussie lads do, you can swap over the pumps, the timing is the same. I you look at the pump shaft it has a line/mark on one spline, there is a corresponding line on the back of the timing gear, you can see when you remove the pump. You maybe need to clean the timing gear to find...

you dont need to run a EDIC, from what I understand it only controls extra fuel when starting from cold , like minus 20c, and an electric shut down of the engine. so you dont need any electrics

looks like we have the same problem. what happened to your pump

I have fitted the replacement pump, I blocked off the oil supply on the block with a bolt. Filled the pump to the level indicated on the dip stick but as of yet it has not been run. I am waiting for a timing cover gasket and crankshaft pulley seal. I have removed the EDIC system because it was...

The HJ had been stood for 12yrs, when we tried to start it we found no fuel coming to injectors. after digging further I found NO fuel filter, and water in the filter housing, Anyway after priming and to the pump and all air gone, pump was only delivering fuel to No 1 injector. upon further...

Hi , I am looking for info regarding different injector pumps for the H engine. The replacement I have sourced has no oil supply connection on the front, but it appears to have a oil chamber breather on the back. it also has a different throttle and stop connections. The original had the...

Hi, Newbie here, I have just downloaded the H2 engine repair manual to verify the timing marks on an engine I am working on. The picture in the manual shows 2 idler gears and the engine in front of me has just one idler. my question is, are there early and late variants of the 2H engine or is...
