I was using my backhoe this morning and it just quit, like someone turned the key off. it is a 4-390 engine with a CAV pump.
I bled the filter and pump using lever on the lift pump and no air, bleeder open turn it over and get good flow, lift pump is ok.
Took the small cover off of the side of the injector pump and the shaft is going around, replaced cover and re bled.
loosened injector nuts and no fuel,
THEN I noticed the wire had fallen off of the fuel solenoid, yea I know :roll:
Anyway hooked it up and still nothing out of the lines.
checked voltage and 12v koeo 8.5v when cranking, hooked up a jumper wire straight to battery still nothing.
When touching wire to solenoid I can hear it, not a sharp click but it is moving.
did I damage anything trying to bleed it with no power?
is there a hi pressure bleeder on the pump?
what am I missing?
