CK20 won't start

   / CK20 won't start #21  
Hey guys...I've been traveling and haven't had time to get back to the site. I just spent the weekend doing some more work.

Rob - The smoke is white. I checked the fuel lines after the injector pump and I'm getting fuel but when I removed them and cranked the engine I expected a little more pressure. How much pressure should be coming out?

It would shoot the fuel up 3-4 feet. I put the lines back on and cranked it some more to remove the air out of the lines then tightend them fully.I'll move to the glow plugs next since that seems to be the next logic step.

My solenoid looks like it is working fine. I can visually see it open and close. It goes to open after a few seconds after I turn the switch off. Is there a better way to test this? Bearhawk comments make me question if it is really working now.

Sounds like you are getting fuel. If you remove the lines at the injectors and crank it, you just get a little squirt of fuel, nothing impressive.
