Hello,
I just acquired 1986 Ford 1310, rebuilt engine, glow plugs, new injectors and rebuilt injector pump.
These are my steps to start.
Connect to heavy duty battery charger with switch to boost position.
Turn key to glow plug for 60 seconds
Crank starter for numerous minutes until it starts. Did I say numerous minutes as I watch the black puffs of smoke from the exhaust pipe.
Does not like starter fluid, and does not matter the throttle position
Runs great after I start it.
No matter how long I use it, I have to follow the starting procedure described, so I leave it idling until I'm done.
That's it, in a nutshell.
Any thoughts and advice is appreciated.
Dave
