 |

Hello!
I am new to the water-cooled stuff and especially new to diesel. I recently acquired a diesel rabbit and just can't seem to get it started. It was sitting for quite a while before I got it. I managed to track my problem down to the Injection pump. I pulled the hard lines off the pump where it goes to the injectors to see if any fuel is passing through. I am getting a nice stream of fuel from the 4th outlet, an OK drip from the 3rd outlet, but nothing from 1 and 2.
My question is, can I try and run a fuel cleaner through the pump to clear the 2 lines, or will I need to just rebuild the pump as a whole? Is there some way of clearing these lines without completely dismantling the IP?  |
