A friend of mine, bought a 560 Diesel. It had the head removed, as the head gasket had blown.
We had the Head planed, and checked over, and it is now installed.
It had some other issues, which we fixed. There was also some bad wiring that was replaced too.
The glow plug meter had been broken, and bypassed, so a new gauge was installed and rewired up. When I pushed the glow plug warm up button, the gauge pegged to the right, so I turned the wires around on the gauge. It still pegs out to the right. Is it supposed to work like that? I had a wiring diagram, and I'm sure I have it wired correctly. Or do I have an injector shorting out? The injectors were checked and I presumed to be in working order.
Another question, is the mechanical fuel shut off lever on the injector.
As it sits, there is a spring that pulls the lever backwards, toward the rear of the tractor.
I know there is a push pull button on the dash, that runs down to the injector to the lever. the way the spring is hooked, the button would be naturally pulled out. I believe the spring should be hooked so that the button on the dash should be pulled out to shut off fuel supply.
Sorry I sound a little stupid, but I haven't worked much on Diesel engines. Any advice is always appreciated
