I have a customers IT18B, serial prefix “1DF” with a 3204DI.
it dropped a valve, put a new reman head on it, and new piston/rings. Can not get it to fire witho it ether or pumping the primer while cranking. Fuel system was a bit sad so decided to overhaul it. Had the injection pump rebuilt, and put new injectors in it & filters. Still the same, if I crank it while someone pumps the hand primer it will idle, as soon as you stop pumping the hand primer, or try to rev it up, it dies. Plenty of pressure from transfer pump etc (which was done with the rebuilt pump). Only thing that hasn’t been done is the adapters through the valve cover, read somewhere they have a screen in them? Seems strange it will fire if pumping the primer though.
Any help appreciated! Thanks.
