What did I just buy.

[otiswesty]

I have an injection pump off of a stock 300GD, 1984 or 1985 vintage, that was pulled off of a good running original om617 that came out of a diesel 460 for a turbo diesel transplant. I was holding on to it for a project that never materialized. PM me if you are interested. I can give you both the engine number it came off and the serial number on the pump if that helps.

Well I just got back my G, I took it to a shop to get it running. It cost me a arm, leg and my 1st born LOL.
they had to replace the injector pump and a few other items, now it starts right up and purrs.:wings: well it purrs as good a diesel can anyways.
Now I can get to the rest of the stuff it needs.
Time to order parts

I took it to the shop you told me about in Chamblee, nice guys and did a great job.
Like you said they are not cheap, but they are very knowledgeable.

Getting it running was worth it.

 

[otiswesty]

Glad to hear you got it running well. It is a nice motor for off road and on the back roads

Great guys. I've been dealing with Hans since 1974 or 1975.

I really haven't driven it yet, its still on the trailer getting ready to go to work for me to finish making it road worthy.
I don't expect this thing to be a speed demon since I thing it has something like a 4.88 gear, that's almost as low as my tractor.

 

[huntsonora]

Love that truck! Can't wait to see you get it back into shape

 

[RussK]

Now that I have it running, I'm waiting on some parts to make it road worthy.

You can see how much we had to clean it.:Wow1:
.


Still up on which tires to buy, want same wheels but maybe up a size from the 215/85-16s that are on it now.:safari-rig:
.


waiting on wheel cylinders, oil sender, head light switch....the list goes on

 

[DUTCH]

Upping the tire size will further tax that low HP engine.

 

[RussK]

I decided to keep the OE size on the tires,
got a great deal on all 5, and while replacing them I went ahead and repainted all the wheels and center caps it made it look so much better.
I replaced the headlight switch, rear wheel cylinders, doing the fluids (trans, transfer case, diffs tomorrow) , after that its road worthy ....oh I still have to replace them ugly white double wipers. Will post pics soon.
