Bob,

One of the guys had a same question about a Ford 1300. I sent him the same info but his injector pump configuration was quite different from what I have and what is published in IT FO-44 shop manual. I went ahead and checked the NH site and they had his design in there. It appears in his case the pump is lubricated by the engine oil. I have noticed soundguy to mention on several threads that some of the older model the injector get it forced lubrication from engine oil pump. I have a pic that I was sent so below. IF yours is different get a picture of it and post. If I were you I'd go to NH site to double check as well.

JC,




I was a bit curious and checked the NH website. what they had only one type of pump , exact same as I what I have on my 1700 with the exception of 3rd fuel discharge port. I'm curious in what you're looking at.
