injector pump timing

Post by auag »

i'm tinkering on my 81 diesel and forgot which way to rotate the injector pump to advance the timing...do you rotate the top of the pump toward the block or away from the block to advance the timing?

Turning the top of the IP toward the block will advance.
Have a nice day.
