Friday night began with some cleanup and painting of the
new rebuilt pump from D&W Diesel in Albany. |
 |
Here's the secret code numbers for future reference. |
 |
Jaime helped. |
 |
At first she was a little timid, but she got into it pretty fast! |
 |
Here she is finished! |
 |
I have named her "Black Beauty" |
 |
Black like the color of Diesel Particulate Matter hahaha! Or used diesel
motor oil. |
 |
My last meal of 2004 - A ham sandwich. This was taken at 11:57! |
 |
Shane celebrating the new year on his new bed. |
 |
Jaime wasn't feeling very celebretory the next morning. |
 |
She was busy being monk like. |
 |
And she didn't like having her photo taken either. |
 |
Black beauty ready to roll! Nice and dry and everything. |
 |
Before I started that though, I had to rob some parts off of the Sportruck
engine, the glow plugs (only one season on them), and intermediate shaft
pully. |
 |
The Truckdoza engine as it was left. |
 |
Me and my buss bar. |
 |
Glow plugs installed! |
 |
Buss bar installed! |
 |
Injectors installed! |
 |
I also touched up the tranny plate and some other ugly nuts and bolts
with POR-15. |
 |
Injection pump bracket installed. |
 |
Injection pump, installed! |
 |
Dad adjusting the timing belt pully. |
 |
Adjusting... |

 |
Ohhh yeah! The camshaft is installed also. |
 |
Doing the injection pump timing.. |
 |
Inserting the guage... |
 |
Preloading... |
 |
Here's teh setting before we started, still too low. |
 |
We advanced the timing to top of spec, 1.02. |
 |
The finished product! |
 |
How exciting! Next week, it's injection lines, pullys, timing covers,
alternator, compressor, and starter! This engine's really starting to
come together! |
