EXTREMELY valuable information. If I'd known this, I'd have my truck in my driveway instead of sitting 20 miles away. Now I can drive it into my shop - and out of the rain - and fix it correctly. Every diesel owner should know this little trick. Thanks a lot!

Thank You soooo much. I was waiting for a tow when I started googling the cause of the instant shut down. I first got wired the pump with no results. Then I found this video and in just a few minutes was running with a stick from a bush growing near by jammed in. When I got it home I used a fexible piece of rubber laid over the intake to shut it down. But it saved me the wrecker bill and glad it took him so long that I found this video.

Hopefully this will come in handy or not be necessary in my travels. Great video, Thanks for putting it out there.

It's hard to think to pinch a fuel line or block off air intake in the moment on a runaway diesel. 😬 Thanks for the video 👍

Yeah, thankfully i had installed a ball valve inline before thee filter 'cause My actuator lever got bent and slid into the wrong position Behind the shut off valve and she went WOT! Still took a 30 seconds to run out of fuel & shutdown, but did save the engine. I now "JUMPER WIRES" (+ & - ) the solenoid, BEFORE dropping down /sliding forward the Dome on the IP and then pop all the Injector lines lose enough "it wont" start" and completely release #1 fuel line injector side, so i can see if it is pumping fuel & shutting off , using a jumper wire & remote start button to the Starter relay. Turn it over while fuel solenoid is jumped "Pops fuel" take jump off "No fuel" GOOD TO GO! I don't EVERrrrr want to hear my engine do that again.. thought I was gonna cry as i had it my head WOT was certain engine death.

Had to wedge my solenoid a few weeks ago. My trucks an automatic , I had to remove the air cleaner housing and use my clipboard to block of the intake air. I learned that method on a turbo Perkins 2 stroker when the oil seal on the turbo failed to the intake side bearing and started feeding oil to the cylinders. Fist time I ever been next to an oil burner runaway. That little Perkins must had topped at 5000 rpm's. Scary shit that was. engine never ran right after that.

I was stranded 3 hours from home @ a road side rest. I poured a can of coke (I had to buy if out of the vending machine) on top of the injector pump and it started right up. The cooling action works long enough for it to start and as long as I don't shut if off it runs fine, if the engine is hot it won't start but will start if the engine cools off for a few hours. I had no idea it was cooling a coil.

Check your return line off of the IP, for having that much fuel. you may have a bad line or blocked return line. Very good video though.

How to time a mechanical injection pump of a 6.9 international ford

Ha. Very interesting 🤔

Theoretically, you could have a pump shop put in an agriculture style manual shutoff. Like using a choke cable to shut off engine. Then, if you had a manual trans, you could pull start it, and not even need an electrical system. Just saying.

Im doing this on my truck does it hook to anything in there

HOW Do I know if the ignition switch or solenoid is the cause of engine not shutting down when I turn key off?

Is the part on the right side of the pump called a plunger or a fuel governor?

I have a problem it supptered and died now it won’t start but will crank over

GREAT VIDEO SIMPLE TO WATCH EAZY TO LEARNING AND SAVE $$$$$$$$$ THANKS

You were scared shitless just before start up . And if it did RUNAWAY put something over the intake to choke the AIR OFF and it will shut down .

what a poor videi can't hear and can't hardly see whay is going on.
