I am not sure what the filter number it is but it is for a 1990 ford Escort with a 1.9l engine. No electric pump on it. All I have is a gravity tank hung above the engine. The only wiring it needs is for shut off/speed solenoid on the side of the engine. There are 2 coils hooked up to a solenoid connected to the injection pump by a linkage setup. The primary coil of the solenoid is for the low speed/shut off and the second coil is for the full speed. They are wired separately so you can select one of two speeds and shut off the engine. If you want it hooked up to gauges there is also an oil pressure sender, water temp sender, and glow plugs if needed. I've never needed the glow plugs yet
I have a question for the throttle setup. Im working on swapping this engine into a 1977 Bolens G9 garden tractor. Ive wired the low speed/shutoff part of the solenoid to a switch so i can shut the engine off. My question is this: would it be harmful to the solenoid if i attached a throttle cable to it so i can use a gas pedal instead of the integrated high speed part of the solenoid? Would this damage the solenoid at all? Thanks!
@@chevy385 Hi I'm back. I finally got all the parts i needed to start the engine (the OEM starter went bad), but couldn't get it to start. I was getting fuel to cylinder 1 and possibly 2, but number 3 isn't getting anything as far as i can tell. It sputters when i crank it over, but wont fire or run on its own, even with two cylinders. I tried using a little ether to get it started, but it wouldn't run on ether either. I think its because of a lack of fuel to to injectors, even though there is fuel at the injection pump. I cant find a bleed screw anywhere, and I'm kinda at the end of my expertise. Any ideas? There's a short on my channel of the startup fail if that helps.
Crack the nut open at each injector while cranking and check for fuel. Also, you need a lift pump before the injector pump that makes at least 1 psi of pressure. Try loosening the nut at each injector first to check for fuel flow
Hey, just under the thermostat housing where the top radiator hose outlet is, there is another brass outlet.. what is that for? I have the similar engine but the 2 cylinder one also off a Thermo King fridge unit. I’m trying to hook up a radiator to it.. the top radiator hose comes off thermostat house and bottom radiator hose comes off the the water pump outlet.. but there’s still that outlet just under the top radiator hose/thermostat housing that I can’t figure out. Any idea? Thanks
Try gravity feeding it and while cranking it crack the nut at each injector. When fuel comes out close it. If you get fuel to one cylinder it should run good enough to bleed the other 2.
What fram number oil filter is that?
Did you have to run an electric fuel pump to the engine?
Any wiring hooked up to get it to run?

Any idea what the HP and TQ rating is on this little motor? I can't find anything on them.
Approximately 16HP/26 ft/lb torque
Not bad.. it shouldnt have a problem powering a hydraulic pump then

Nope. I'm going to be using mine on a 10KW generator head.
Cool

That would be perfectly fine. That's a good setup.

I think it went to a surge tank.
Hello just wondering if this engine is direct injection? I can’t find any information on it.
Thank you.
This engine is indirect injection
i cant get mine to run, i think the high pressure pump that feeds the injectors is toast :(

you need to pressurise the fuel to the injector pump
Mine runs great with just gravity but according to the manual it actually requires only 1psi or greater
How many horse power
At it's rated RPM it's 16hp/26tq I believe
I have so many questions about this motor. Whats the best way to private message you?
