You dont need the spring under the delivery valve holder when testing it, just remove the valve from the body. And to make it 100% easier to see the point of cutoff, take an old injector pipe and cut about 6 inches of it off and make what looks like a fishing gaff hook with it and cut the non-nut end on about a 45 degree slice. This will enable you to see the cutoff point far far easier than just having fuel pour out the top of the d/v holder plus you can direct the fuel into a container.

Yep, I would have but didn’t have any correct fittings kicking around. Mostly work on Detroit stuff if I’m playing diesel, no high pressure lines on those!

[@matui6983]

Im the opposite down here. Do that style of pump every day and even tho Ive got a unit I made to run Detroit injectors I just dont see any now to use it. Still plenty of Jimmys in boats ( we still have 2 x 6-71's in a tugboat) but just not popular engine like they used to be.

@@matui6983 do you have a source for barrel elements? Didn’t have any luck finding parts for this...

[@matui6983]

Ive tried a bunch of times to send you the two places Id try and I use like my parts guys use but every comment vanishes.

Try injectionpumps over in the Uk. Search that and you should find everything needed for that model pump.
