New to me TC29D cranks & won’t start

Too much blow by and very little resistance to cranking per compression stroke. Likely they started it with either until it wouldn’t start anymore. Time for disassembly.

Injector and pump “pop” test in progress tonight

Also anyone know for sure I can drop oil pan ? Looks to be a crossmember and possible front driveshaft in the way.. last picture attached …

Pop test vid looks like 1 good 1 fair and 1 bad injector but pump looks to be working to my eye. What do the pros think?

What is next on the to do list everyone?? Besides spray some air freshener and get beard balm on, all I smell is diesel #2 lol

Swap the one that’s NOT PUMPING to a different line..
THATS to rule out a bad cyl in the pump..

Are these type injectors rebuildable or cheaper just to get new?

 

[thepumpguysc]

They are rebuildable..
DO NOT buy them off the internet.. they’re garbage.

Something else I was thinking about. I’m used to doing compression tests by removing the injectors, not the glow plugs. If you do a compression test using the glow plug holes, can the injectors leak enough to throw off your test?

That’s almost funny. If the injectors leaked back how would they handle the explosion?
The surface area of the nozzle is so small it can’t push back. The blow by tells the story. So much guessing on here the guy is just chasing his tail until the main thing is corrected.

Are you always arrogant and pissy ?
