rbrtcrowther Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Hi Shawn have you got the meadows "automatic injection advance" unit fitted in you engine i can't quite see it in the pics. or is it just a shaft? Don't want to state the ovious but have you tried running it with the air filters and intake manifods removed, mabey the exhaust manifold too. there could be a blockage or the exhaust manifold could be bunged up with carbon if it's been sat running a pump not working very hard.

shawn Posted July 16, 2011 Author Share Posted July 16, 2011 hi everybody i have managed to get a little further with the meadows pump system, but i have another problem. The alternator drive coupling , which is about 5 inches long ,vulcanized rubber at both ends , one of the ends which is vulcanized to the shaft has perished . I was just wondering does anyone know where i could get a replacement ? it was on the meadows petrol engine before i did the conversion to diesel. i dont think im able to take a picture, but when the rain stops i will try and see if i can get to it and take a pic. any help/suggestions gratefully recieved thanks shawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
