Subject: RE: Priming Fuel System 12.7L Detroit



I did get the truck going this morning. I first tried pressurizing the fuel tanks. That did not seem to work. Ended up pulling the air filter and making sure the housing was clean. Then I sprayed ether straight toward the pipe that goes to the turbo. It took about 3 times doing that and increasing amounts of ether each time to get it to fire and then keep going. I let the truck run and warm up and then took it for a spin around the block. It acted normal and didn't seem to studder/flutter when you stepped on the gas pedal. I will find out for sure on Sunday when I haul a load of hay. Thanks for the help.
