Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Tools for setting timing on 12v?

[jwilliams3]

What tools do I need to purchase to set and read fuel delivery timing on a P7100 equipped truck?



Where do I get them?

What tools does that include?

Not sure about the Snap-on kit, but the Miller kit (which I've heard is similar) includes the dial indicator, the dial holder, the gear puller, and the delivery valve holder socket.



About the only other special too you need to set the timing is a Cummins barring tool.

Looks like the Snap-on Kit includes the puller too. It is $205 from Snap-on. Does anyone know what the Miller kit runs? Where to buy? Can Snap-on be purchased cheaper somewhere else?

Justin: Why do you care? You have an ISB and an ISBe... neither of which have the bad-dog P-7100.



Are you going to start wrenching on trucks for $$? I guess the videotape sales must be declining in the cold months...



Just rippin' on 'ya, buddy!



I own the Snap-On SP-500 kit... it has everything you need (except for the instructions) on setting timing on a P-7100 equipped truck.



Once you get the kit... or beforehand... do a search on how to set the timing on these things. There's lots of shortcuts that make life a lot easier.

Anyone know where to get just the delivery valve socket?

You can order each part in the kit separately from SnapOn; and I think you can also get it from Piers.
