Ok, so I've searched online and have tried everything I can find. Here's the scenario. I was driving my 1987 Ford E350 with 6.9 and I had an attendant (in Oregon) pump gas into my diesel. I drove about 55 miles on mostly gas and as I pulled in to my destination it sputtered and died on me. I know it was gas since my fuel cap lit on fire when I hit it with a lighter (I was HEATED to say the least!). So, Shell isn't covering it and I have to go to small claims blah blah blah back to the truck. I bled the system after it sat for a month or two and with some new diesel and some ether I got her to start up and run like normal, yay! Wrong, here I am 4 months later and I can't get it to start. The pump is working and flowing well and I bled the injectors, I'm only getting a trickle out of them, should there be alot coming out? Fuel shutoff valve is working as well as the cold start advance, they're clicking when I disconnect and connect them. I had a problem with air getting in to the lines but I've since unhooked the grease system and faulty check valve that was causing that, I'm leaving the grease system unhooked until she's running and starting good on diesel. I've cranked it more than enough to get the injector pump bled but I'm about 2 clicks away from ordering new injectors, return lines, and a new IP just to get her started and running well. It has always been dependable, it has an electric fuel pump and the diesel water separator, not sure if it's stock though. On a side note, the glow plugs are all brand new motorcraft brand and are all getting 12v. I was able to check the compression on the cylinder closest to the drivers seat and it was 430! I couldn't check the rest because the harbor freight $180 diesel compression tester had a faulty release valve and the damn gauge wouldn't return to zero, go figure . I have the cash and time to fix it but my time is running out, I'll be moving out of my house on the 1st and into the bus so I need to get her going soon! Thanks everyone in advance! Fred

 

sounds like ur on the right path...those injection pumps dont like gas neather dose the injectors....scott
