I bought a military cucv with a 1984 6.2 Detroit diesel. It sat for a year after the owner lost interest and I bought it under the guise that it ran before parked and he showed me videos of it idling fine. The fuel had gone bad, (clear but dark orange) so I've siphoned it all off, replaced it with new with treatment, replaced the filter with a new spin on and I have good pressure from the fuel pump to the injector pump at 8psi. My issue is I'm not getting fuel out of the injector pump after cracking two lines to see it come out. I've also replaced the batteries, so I have a good crank. The fuel shutoff solenoid has also been replaced and works when powered. Fuel lines from the mechanical pump to the filter, to the injection pump have all been replaced and I'm working through all of the other rubber hoses to replace.
I was wondering if there is a diesel mechanic that would be willing to talk through before I swap out the injection pump (Stanadyne DB2) at a cost of $800?
Thanks
