OK heres what I've done. Yesterday, after reading the helpful hints I was given here, I turned the engine to 18 degrees btdc. I pulled the injector out, turned it to time up with the pointer, and re installed. Fuel was up to the injectors, so I tightened up the lines, and tried starting. It cranked, but just a little smoke came out of the pipe. Frustrated, I left, but came back this afternoon, and instead of pulling the injector, I removed the 3 bolts on the injector drive gear, and turned it 1 turn, re aligned the mark and tightened the 3 bolts back down. I did this, after making sure it was again on 18 degrees btdc.
I tried it again, and this time, I have alot of grey smoke coming out of the pipe. Enough to fill the shop with smoke in a very short time.
But it didn't start.
I even plugged in the block heater, to warm the engine, to see if that would help. It didn't.
There are 2 new batteries in it, and new battery wires. I'm not sure how fast it should turn over, but it seems like it may not be spinning as fast as it should. Would this be a problem, if it's not cranking over fast enough?
I think I'm very close, but not quite. This is my first diesel overhaul, and even though I know alot about engines, diesels are a little different than what I'm used to.

The General GG was made by the Cleveland Tractor Company (Cletrac) of Cleveland, Ohio. Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
