Correct. That picture includes the lift pump (which has the cam follower) AND the manual priming pump. The way the assembly is configured the manual priming pump utilizes the lift pump check valves. The principle of operation for both is the same, only the lift pump utilizes a push rod and cam follower to move the plunger.
Well, maybe not an idiot - but certainly uninformed. There are dozens - if not hundreds - of times that members of this forum have been told NOT to do that. Even though a broken clock is still right twice a day, odds are you've now pretty much screwed the pooch. Best you can hope for is to find an area diesel shop that will even TOUCH a Chinese injector - then pray that they've got the OE specs to set the pop pressure correctly.
Got it. The item is just identified incorrectly in the online catalog. Compared to the price of the whole fuel delivery assembly, I'd say $80 is still a reasonable price for the low pressure side. At $40, you got a steal.
HUH? We're talking ~$80.00 for an OEM pump. No mods required.
Governor built into the distrubutor - injector pump.
That's going to confuse a lot of newbies. There is no distributor - just like there is no ignition switch. There is a fuel injection pump assembly (which holds the individual barrels and plungers) and there is a key switch (no ignition system on a diesel engine). It's always nice to eliminate confusion whenever possible. I apologize, but in all my years of wrenchin' & schoolin' I've never heard of a fuel injection pump referred to as a distributor.
I cant keep up with all this.
But FIRST
electric fuel supply (lift pump) first to get your supply. Get it to run smooth consistently at some speed then go from there.
There is some modifications required to install an electric fuel pump, such as cutting into the OEM steel fuel lines, installing a relay, fuse/circuit breaker, oil pressure safety switch, etc.. Not sure the OP wants to get into that right now, just trying to keep it simple.
