Well.. I now need to rebuild/clean the injectors. I installed this sweet low mileage engine that I built a few years back and installed into this wagon. The engine ran great but the injection pump was worn out and leaking so I replaced it with a pump that I built about 6 years ago.

The engine went from easy starting, clean burning and peppy to hard starting, smoky and sluggish after I swapped pumps. Checked timing several times, all good. I ran this injection pump years ago and it was perfect. Well I decided that possibly there was gummed up diesel in the delivery valves and it sent it out to the injectors. I pulled all six injectors and tested them, all failed! So now it’s time to clean/rebuild them!
