New Injectors...No start

[sgg93]

So I sent my injectors off to Rosewood, and got everything buttoned back up except the valve covers. Now I've got a no start. My batteries are from last year (675CCA Interstates), but I'm suspecting I have a tired starter. It cranked well to purge the cylinders, but when I got the injectors and glow plugs in it, there wasn't enough cranking RPM to register on the tach. Also, I filled the HPOP reservoir up, but I'm not getting any oil from the spouts on the injectors (and the truck has a known weak LPOP), so should I go ahead and swap starters, charge the batteries up, refill the reservoir, and try it again? Or are there any other suggestions? The truck has probably been cranked at less than 100 RPM for about a minute since the injectors were installed.

i know thus may sound dumb....but are the harness plugged in. All of them.

Perhaps use another truck to jump yours while cranking. That's what I had to do. And it worked. Also, u will have to crank for a while to get everything primed and purged again.

i jus replaced my injectros and i had to crank on mine to get it started untill all the air got out. once i got mine to start i drove it around

I did get all the harnesses plugged in. I'll try the jump start trick if I can't get hold of a charger. I guess I need to keep the HPOP reservoir full. Thanks guys

O. I'm in Florida, sorry. But perhaps one of the fellas on here local to u could lend a hand.

[sgg93]

Never mind. Got it running.

Well I was driving it around today and finally got the smoke cleared up after 25 or so miles. Pulled it into the driveway and popped a power steering line Can't win 'em all.
