  1. Well, as much as I hate to admit it after all the troubleshooting and money thrown at it... It was all the hand primer pump.
  2. I'd love to put a manual shutoff on it and rule that out but unsure of how to since it's not built like a 12-valve, it's an actual plunger that goes into the side of the pump unlike the Cummins that has a seperate arm leading to the solenoid. All that goes into the back of my shutoff are wires. I'll check the Deutch connector tomorrow, make sure all the pins are solid. What "rear cover" are you talking about? Fuel filters have not been changed since I've had it (I've put less than 50 miles on this truck), I would think that it'd still have "fuel/water" coming out of the top of the injection pump while cranking and lines are cracked? So I checked those this evening real quick, the lightning bolt was there with a good bulb.. I did not find a check engine light... The light assembly to the left of the high beam light directly above the steering column was gone with the bulb sitting back in the dash with a burned out bulb, changed the bulb and she was steady on.. As for the shutdown light, it's assembly was also missing with the bulb back behind the panel, unfortunately the positive wire was cut and is nowhere to be found.... I will see if the flashes work tomorrow.
  3. The primer pump does have fuel leaking out of it but it has strong fuel pressure at the injection pump if I crack that line going into the pump. 97 yes, so I believe mechanical pump with some electronic control, namely the fuel shutoff. Good idea, I'll pull that light out and replace the bulb. Everytime it has started it was a very healthy start, only time it would sputter is if it was a little chilly and sat for a bit.
  4. Fuel filters are not dry and almost instantly pump back into the tank when I use the prime on the side of the pump. I've never seen the check engine light, I believe the red shutdown does work but I haven't paid much attention to it.
  5. Hey guys, I have a 97 RD with the E7-350 in it.. It was having issues staying running so I started with the engine sensors, changed the oil pressure sensor and finally got it to run longer than a minute. It ran for about 30-40 minutes, I shut it off, topped it off with coolant and started it back up and it ran for another 20 or so minutes (operating temp I'd imagine) and then it shut itself off and now won't start. It cranks just fine and has good fuel pressure going into the injection pump with the key on, I have 3.5ish volts going to the fuel shutoff solenoid towards the back of the pump... I've also cracked the lines on top of the injection pump and cranked and only the very forward line got a little wet and now nothing when I try to bleed. Any ideas on why it may have died or why it won't start now?
