Hi everyone, I've fixed everything else I could think of, so I think my injection pump is at fault at this point. I'm looking for a verified working 2L-TE injection pump from a surf or a prado. If anyone has one they can sell, please let me know! -thanks

So I think I've found the cause of the issue where it wasn't getting fuel to all 4 cylinders. There was a short in the main relay preventing the spill valve from getting power. I fixed that today and got fuel to all 4 cylinders. But it still won't start and idle. I brought it to a shop and they...

I brought the truck to a friend's shop (they're big rig mechanics) and they checked through the wiring harness. Unfortunately, I can't find the correct pinout for the ECU (there is one translated from Japanese posted on here, but the colours of the wires don't seem to match mine). Anyways, we...

OK so I found the relay for the spill valve and tried unplugging it and testing the signal at the spill valve plug, and it indeed comes on and off, so I think the wiring going from the harness to the spill valve is intact. I am pretty sure this means the ECU is not sending the right signal to...

I have that ground bolted onto the starter. Is this incorrect? There is another ground wire on the left frame rail. It was originally bolted to the bracket for the injection pump, but I think it should be on the block.

ThAnks @Dprio34 !! I'm just working on the LJ right now. I actually got it to start once by hotwiring the spill valve, but it was just smoke everywhere. I don't think the wore to the spill valve is working properly. I think there might be ground issues on this engine. Can you send me some...

OK. Unfortunately, I can't try it right now because the truck isn't at my house, but I'll try it ASAP. I still feel like soemthing is off with the injection timing, because I swear fuel was coming out of all 4 lines before I clocked the pump, but I double checked the timing belt/sprockets and...

Hmm. I cranked for about 10 seconds at least 10 times. I think there may be a little girl coming from line 3, but line 4 still has nothing.

OK so I got the new bolt on and bled the return line, but I've ran into a new issue. As instructed here I clocked the timing pump after my last attempt to start it up (before I broke the fuel return line bolt). Before that, I had the mark on the pump slightly below the mark on the timing belt...

I finally got the part made. It was a little difficult to find a metric bolt with such a fine thread, and the head is a different size, but this one seems to fit well and depresses the spring. Hi @GTSSportCoupe! No problem! I think I was having two problems last week: The timing degree of...

When I did the timing belt, I cranked it by hand 4 times and all the cogs lined up with their marks.

I just figured this out. I thought it was just the timing marks on the cog that mattered. I didn't know about the marks on the injection pump/timing belt housing. My pump was retarded. I've adjusted it correctly now. I also tried bleeding the return line via the banjo bolt on top of the pump...

I did bleed all 4 lines. If totally open then, it does not spray all over the place. Quite a large volume of fuel comes out, and it looks like it comes with the correct timing, but it does not seem to be under very high pressure. I've seen some YouTube videos where they turn it over with the...

Glowplugs are fine. I'm pretty sure I did the timing correctly. I didn't adjust the timing of the fuel pump though, because I don't have the tools, but it should still run if it is close to correct, right? My plan was to get it running and then drive it to a diesel shop to do the precise timing...
