Had a DB pump rebuilt for installation on a '89 F-350. Never started good in cold weather, Rebuilder said timing gears worn, and to advance it 4 deg. Well that didn't work, so he said engine was wasted (47000 miles?) So I just kept limping along with it, keeping it plugged in, constantly fiddling with the glow plugs, etc. (The thing ran good; just hard to start). Till one day the trans went out, and it was laid up for awhile. About this same time, the pump on my '90 Super Duty grenaded, so I swiped the pump from the '89 for the '90. The '90 always started unaided in the coldest weather. After the pump switch, it exhibited the exact same symptoms as the '89. I advanced it as far as the slots would let it go, then it would start okay. Not great, but livable, and it's been running this way since '01. I've got it off again now while changing head gaskets. I want to go through it and make it right, I was wondering if it's possible that the cam ring could be in backwards. If not that, what else might be the problem? Thanks Fritz

Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
