Thanks! I cannot believe that someone would leave out a few parts and put the rest back in wrong! No winder it was a slug! I'm suprised it mran at all. You don't know how many times I almost came close to purging my parts pile of things I never thought I would use! Still have 2 of those little stems that look like plunger stops and one spring! Those will get safely put away somewhere!

Are you talking about the delivery valves? They only really serve to make the injection sequence as square as possible as well as preventing returning shock waves from damaging the pump.

Of course putting the parts in WRONG will do all kinds of interesting things

Yeah, that's what I mean. Just couldn't think of the name at the time, I'm terrible with names!

3 springs were missing, 2 little plungers that only open up during delivery were missing and the other was put in upside down and the round doughnut it sits in was also upside down! I was told this is why it took so much cranking to start because all the fuel drains back to the tank without those!

Runs great now!
