Hello everyone. my name is Mike, this is my first post here.
My English is not perfect, because I live in Belgium on the European continent. (sorry for the elimination of the soccer world cup )
I use google translate a few times to help me with words I don't know. excuse any translation errors.
Due to technical and legal problems there is this motorhome which has been broken down for ten years and is now for sale near my home.
that's good enough because I was considering such a purchase and I am a mechanic by profession.
unfortunately, technical documents for specific breakdowns on vehicles imported from America are not always easy to find here.
that's why I come to ask you for help.
at first glance the motorhome is a chevrolet P30 base with a 6.5 turbo diesel. year unknown but around 1995.
the injection pump is already with modul pmd / fsd.
The motorhome was bought broken 10 years ago by the merchant.
he tried to have it repaired by a mechanic or lumberjack ??? at the start of its purchase.
he then stopped trying to fix it due to problems with the papers.
At that time, the owner would have had the injection pump dismantled and then reassembled, which he would have had reconditioned because it would not start. after reassembling this pump, the truck still did not start.
I think therefore the PMD is new (to be checked) I have a doubt about the lumberjack who syncronized the injection pump.
-I can check the marks on the timing gears. (to be done soon).
-I have no info for the final adjustment of the injection pump.
(injection advance angle, tools to use and procedure).
on European cars this work is different and is done with a comparator measuring instrument.
-Assuming the marks on the gears are placed correctly. Does the wrong angle adjustment of the pump prevent the motor from starting?
-Do you have a procedure using a multimeter tools to test the PMD?
-I read that the oil pressure sensor could shut off the first fuel pump. does it concern this model?
-do you have electrical diagram of this motor?
-immobilizer connection on this engine?
if so where could it be connected?
-do you see other causes for the starting problem?
many thanks for reading me. in your answers please avoid abbreviations that are difficult to translate.
One more thank you for beating your head with me to save this scrap truck !
