I was wondering if it was possible to get the Pump a 180 degrees out to the motor. It would make perfect sense with my truck right now. Shouldn't be to hard to fix either should it?? THe truck turns over fine, but wont start. The whole time it turns over white smoke kinda barely falls out the stack. I got fuel clear to the head and 30psi FP. Give it a shot of ether and it will take off but die once outof it. But it has fuel in the cylinders, cause it is raw fuel coming out the exhaust (grayish smoke).
What I think caused the problem:
I pulled the pump, thought I lock timed it but realized once off truck it wasn't. A buddy said it's ok grab the pump nut and a cresent wrench. Turn the pump shaft over till the timing tab is in the center of the hole and put the locking pin in. It wont hurt anything, I asked, he said no it will be fine. I set is all back up the exact way it was before I pulled it.
Thanks Matt
