Thanks guys, I will order an ignition switch and hope thats it. Ill let you know. Cheers

I agree with Maverick 100% on the ign switch. Here is why. Example....The switch body is plastic and the contacts are copper. The Very cold...

You can, but I'm not going to suggest you "jump" battery voltage to the PCM, in any case. That may not end well. The switch has several Batt+ outputs...

Thank you so much for your help, is there a way to test that ignition switch theory without just replacing the switch? Jump 12v to the correct wire...

Welcome aboard! I think you touched on the most likely suspect in your #2 post. The ignition switch. It can/will cause all of the above if/when it...

Latest update. I went to check exactly what the glow plug circuit malfunction obd code was and now none of my obd2 code readers will connect to the...

Checked all fuses all fuses are good have power ,I unplugged the fuel heater because I was told it's on the same circuit and if it's shorted out,...

My experience with these critters during a "Dry pump" startup with glow plugs out....has been 15-30 seconds and they will be blowing fuel out the...

Good fuel flow out the return suggests the fuel solenoid is opening, or is open by whatever means, and fuel is available for a good pump to push fuel...

Ahhhhh Just a thought..... Unplug the LARGE PINK WIRE from the injection pump.... Turn the key to on and check the voltage at the pink wire....

If you need to confirm that the pump is rotating, remove the cover and watch as you turn the crank by hand. I suspect that isn't the problem, as it...

I would suspect the key way on the gear has broken and not turning the shaft...

Maybe a dumb question, but, are you sure the injection pump is turning? Are you sure the shutoff solenoid is getting power? Have you confused the...

The previous pump just died one day and I had to tow the truck home and never could get fuel to come out of it. I actually tried three different...

I wouldn't be convinced it is the pump Sounds like the issue from before is still there. Did you have a reason to suspect the 1st pump?Other that...

I believe you have figured out my problem, another bad pump. I was using a jump wire to run the starter so I could watch for fuel. Nothing coming...

Are you holding the throttle wide open while cranking? At idle it could take days...

Converting the truck to a manual tranny will not keep it from running, in any case. I think you should try loosening the injector line nuts to see...

The original pump stopped fuel during the summer. I also converted the truck to standard if that changes anything? i dont have the two bolt...

I’ve done a lot more attempts than 20 times. The original pump stopped delivering fuel as well. I bought this one from a man that said he had it...

It shouldn't take "hours", at all. A dozen 20 second cycles is the most I've seen. It sure seemed like hours, though. If you're getting (bubble-free)...

Thanks for the reply. I will continue to keep cranking the motor over in interval so I don’t damage the starter. I have already wore the Barrie’s...

An air-locked pump can take quite a bit of cranking to get it up to pressure. The inlet and return fuel is the low pressure side. The injection pump...
