I Need Advice On 966 Timing!

Posted by Allan In NE on June 12, 2013 at 05:56:00 from (148.66.88.254):

Something just does not add up here. :>(

I pulled the injection pump for replacement. Okay, fine. However, I noticed the following:

With the engine set dead on 18�, the timing mark on the hub of the pump does not line up with the pointer; 'bout 1/4" off. And furthermore, the pump is at the extreme end of it's "free travel"??

Also, the timing marks under the side cover do not align.........either with engine at 0� or 18�. Just a tad off.

Two questions:

Do I have to 'pre-load' that new pump before I clamp the gear?

Would this make the thing run hot while under load?

I don't remember any of these irregularities when I replaced the pump on my 1066 last year.

Hope this makes sense and thanks for any input,

Allan
