So per my other thread from a couple of weeks ago, our Ford 1715 had fuel filling up the crankcase while it was sitting, not running. Figured out that it was o-rings in the injection pump. I know injection pump rebuilds are not normally considered DIY, but I found drawings and service manuals that showed essentially no adjustments in the 1715 injection pump if I just replaced the copper seals and o-rings. I bought the parts, and the special 5-lobe socket and replaced the 4 seals, one pump cylinder at a time so nothing would get crossed over. We put it all back together and drained about 3 gallons of diesel/oil mix from the crankcase. We refilled the oil and changed the filter, bled all the lines, and it started up fine. Just seems to me that it's maybe only running on only 2 cylinders, and blowing a LOT of smoke. I don't think there's really anything I could have messed up with the pump, so I figure it's just something that needs adjustment. Any ideas? Video of it running in attached link.
