Bought a used 1986 Ford 1510 with loader that is having a low power/rpm issue. It has a hard time starting even after a prolonged glow plug cycle. It does not like to idle, and can only reach about 2200 rpm. Max no load rpm is supposed to be 3000 rpm. It drives fine, but when under load it obviously is lacking power.
Here is what I have done so far:
Cleaned fuel tank
New fuel filter
New fuel lines
Had injectors rebuilt by Oregon fuel Injection
Compression check is around 320 psi on all cylinders
Valves were adjusted to .008 on all valves
New air filter
Inspected exhaust for blockage
Inspected intake for blockage
When I was bleeding the fuel lines it seemed like the fuel pressure coming up to the injectors was low. It took forever to get fuel up to the injector, and when it did bleed out of the line, it just kind of oozed out with little pressure. I currently have the injector pump half apart looking for any obvious signs of damage, but so far have found none.
Here is the pump removed from the body. The fuel rack moves freely with no binding.
The banjo fitting and fuel intake are clear. I also have a steady stream of fuel from the fuel hose from the tank to where it connects up to the banjo fitting.
Backside of pump looks fine.
The bottom of the pump with roller tappets. Each pump is able to compress and return to position without any issue.
Inside of the pump looks fine to me. No metal chunks or corrosion. There was almost no oil, so I tried filling it some, but it just drains into the timing cover. The governor spring sticking out on the right side compresses and returns fine. The fuel rack fork linkage appears to operate normal. The spring attached to it does not seem to be stretched or anything.
My next step is to remove the cover plate and take a peek at the governor weights. If it looks normal here, I知 fresh out of ideas.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. The snow is going to start falling soon, and I need this for snow removal. Thank you.
