911! HPOP on a 7.3- All hands on deck!
Ok, I thought I had an issue with the IPR or HPOP. Turns out, the 17* I bought blew the oring between the line fitting and the HPOP.
But before I knew that, I got a new IPR and HPOP and started tearing it down today. I have everything apart except the 18mm bolt that holds the gear to the pump. When I loosen the bolt, the bolt just turns the pump backwards. I spoke with Marc today and he suggested that I loosen the rear bolts and pry the pump back a bit to put pressure on the pump. That didn't work. My question is this; Is there a way to lock up the HPOP to remove the bolt?????? I tried replacing the oring and putting everything back together, but even the new oring just blew out. It seems this pump as seen better days, I think the fitting is stripped. I've never had this problem before and no one else has seen this either. I need to get the truck running ASAP. |

Hmm isn't the hpop gear driven off the cam? Wouldn't the engine compression stop the pump from turning? Wild guess on my part

The gear stays put. The bolt is passing through the gear to the hpop.

Wedge a socket between the gear and the hpop housing.

The gear does not move, nor does the engine. This is the bolt that passes through the gear, that holds it to the HPOP. |

I just to the Bob Riley at Dieselsite. He said the loctite is causing this problem. I will have to remove the reservoir and clamp down on the shaft with a channel lock.
Any other ideas, bring 'em on. |

The more I think about this, the more I don't know if it will work. I don't remember that much room there.
