The service tool you speak of: should have been included with the new seal. You can set the seal to any depth you like as long as the seal is riding on a fresh surface of the crank. The Cummins speedi-sleeve kit w/crank seal did not have the depth tool.

Can not answer the pulley question, but voltage regulation is controlled by the computer. You would have to add external regulation.

Change the fuel filter and overflow valve in the P7100.

Can not say it enough, but make sure no oil residue is left on the gear or shaft. Also you can increase the torque from 145 to 175 ft/lb but don't exceed that.

You should be able to hear the blend door snap shut when the selector switch is turned to the "OFF" position.

I have never found a camshaft position sensor on a 12 valve. To the best of my knowledge, there isn't one.

I bought my Snap On timing tools several years ago. I would never rent them out. If the rentee was heavy handed or dropped the dial indicator, the rental fee would not cover the replacement $$. I've only loaned them out twice. Both times to trusted buddies (a Cat mech and a Case IH mech). Both...

Check the electrical connection for the engine speed sensor aka crankshaft sensor. It is located just above the harmonic balancer.

Did you have to upgrade the factory master and slave? What is peddle effort like compare to stock? What is the shifting like? How hard or easy to upshift, same with downshifting? I really would like to know how it compares to a con ofe.

The engine will tell you want it wants, but deciphering the clues is open to interpretation. The fuel should be at a couple of the injectors. Enough to get it to start and run rough. All you can do is verify that there is fuel at the injectors. I read the first post and understand that it ran...

That truck was running before on the lift pump, correct? I would suspect that it has a lot of air in the fuel system. Have you bled it at the injectors?

Pull number one injector. Use a wire (coat hanger) to find tdc. Watch the valves as you rotate the motor over.

The stock 12 valve lift pump is very reliable. The return line is needed.

There is almost no support for a 8. 2. I do not have a single shop in my area that is proficient on that engine, nor do they want to be. I found the problem. It is sticking in the throttle cable. Thanks for the replies and chuckles.
