Davo and I have been discussing it since it happened and we reckon potentially the pump was worn before I got it. The pump didn’t show signs of major rust sitting in it, however I am certain that it must have had water sitting in it. Maybe the acidic flood juice has etched the surfaces inside the pump, further increasing pumping losses. Either way we cannot pin-point the issue, but I will admit that the flood water was probably the culprit.
I have a 1HD FT engine but the sound when it is in motion sounds like an helicopter, what could it be? Once they lowered the pressure on the pump and it seemed like the sound went down but it still sounds, what could be happening? please
I’m glad it started, good job.
Good work getting her going again. Maybe the pump got some bad fuel and caused the excessive wear. Who knows...
Any theories on what caused that valve to wear like that?

Shit yeah good to see another full boar episode

Could be a leaking exhaust manifold? Very difficult to tell mate, but I wouldn’t expect the injector pump to cause that noise.
