CAUTIONS:
-
When installing fuel injection pump and to achieve proper injection pump timing, engine MUST be in TDC position (compression stroke) at
cylinder number 1.
-
Before proceeding to next step, and to prevent shearing of timing pin, temporarily remove timing pin from back of gear.
25. Remove nut and washer retaining injection pump gear to injection pump shaft.
26. Place a shop towel below retainer nut in gear housing cover opening to prevent nut or washer from falling into gear housing.
CAUTION: If gear retainer nut or washer drops into gear housing, cover must be removed to retrieve them before engine is started.
27. Use a T-bar type puller to separate injection pump gear from injection pump shaft. Attach two M8 X 1.24 MM (metric) screws through puller and
into the two threaded holes supplied in pump gear. Pull injection pump gear forward until it loosens from injection pump shaft. Pull on gear only
enough to loosen it from injection pump shaft. Pulling gear too far may cause damage or breakage to gear cover.
28. Remove two (2) injection pump-to-lower mounting bracket bolts.
