Kind of veering off topic, in the 80s I had a Buick Lesbre with a Olds 5.7 diesel. Which that car had its own stories but those are not for here. I had a buddy who had went through vo-tech ag diesel so he knew a few things about them and had bought one so I thought it was cool and followed suit. Due to the known issue of governor flex rings deteriorating in the Roosa Master pump he had taken the pump off his and resealed and replaced it. Again I followed suit and redid mine, thus learning at least a little about injection pump work. So now to the point of my post, later I got a mechanic job at a GM dealer. Tech in the next bay was working on a 4.3 V6 Olds diesel, he had the pump off it and put it back and was trying to bleed it and get it to start. Had me come over to run the key, then he sprayed WD-40 in the intake which the engine would not run on, but fired in the cylinders enough that it certainly made it easier for the starter to spin and it cranked faster.
