So I purchased an IH 2400 that needed a rebuild. Not a problem, I have rebuilt motors before. Well...The engine is all back together and it will start and run on either but it wont keep running. I figure its fuel and have been bleeding and bleeding the fuel system and believe all the air is out but still wont start or fun without the either.
This leads me to think that its either the injectors or the injection pump timing. I lined up all the marks on the gears as the manual says but am unclear about the injector pump timing. Does lining up the dots on the gear mean its timed or do I need to put the specific number on the injector pump gear on the dot of the idler pulley gear?
Fuel does squirt out of the lines off the injector pump, and it does not back fire or do anything. It makes me think that either the injectors are not opening or its timing is completely off.
Thanks for any help. Really need this old girl up and running soon.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
