broke my jx injection pump :(

Post by pierce »

A bit of advice needed (got a feeling this one may turn into a long thread), I had just put a new LDA on my injection pump. I had taken the cam off as I didnt realise there was a ball joint connecting the lda to the cam, that sits on the pump.

I put it all back together and started it up, but was getting a bit of white smoke (in hindsight probably nothing out the normal for a cold start). I thought it might be running a bit rich, as a result of accidently turning the bolt/actuator the cam fits on half a turn or so, so decided to try and turn it back half a turn and see what it was like, getting a bit dark so was in a bit of a rush and I have not put it on square and sheered the bolt off and damaged the cam :(

You can see the sheered bolt/actuator in the middle of the picture and the damaged cam. (I knew I should have had a beer instead tonight)

I am thinking a second hand pump may be in order :shock: do I need to do a straight swap or will I be able to fix this from parts?

Any advice greatly appreciated :ok

I take it by the lack of replies that I might have a bit of a problem, I was hoping someone might say that the broken bit can be taken out and replaced easily :lol: .

I`m sure that I have a spare pump around somewhere if any use. Looking for about £50.
