yep, but still less than a mechanical pump... clean up takes a long time especially in this condition, used the gallon carb cleaner soak on this one because the deposits were so heavy... and believe it or not assembly takes less than thirty minutes from this pointThat's a lot of parts.
There use to be a beer brewed in Oregon called Blitz...
http://forums.tdiclub.com/showthread.php?p=4455515I got a pump back just like that from dfis when I didn't want to pay them to not honor their 1 year warranty. That's when I decided there wasn't any black magic inside there (unlike auto transmissions lol). They're fairly simple in and of themselves as long as you keep track of all the parts.
Jim, care to shed any light on calibration of the hub with respect to the plunger?

... as long as you keep track of all the parts.
hah! ... my pop told me stories of one of his uncles that when he had bolts left over from doing engine work he would just throw them inside the valve coverLuckily, sometimes stuff like that will also include a few small spare parts.
It can be hard to tell which ones are spare when disassembling, the spares usually don't really make themselves apparent until reassembly is almost complete...
Thanks! As always, an excellent write up and much simpler than re timing a Cummins ve pump
Not a swash plate.I can't tell from the parts how the pressure is built. I see a rotor with vanes - is that it? What's that dark plate in the middle right with the 4 sets of rollers (?)
Is this a 'swash plate' style pump?
Any wear that you can see?
Thanks much for the detailed explanation!The vane pump is the "lift" pump to supply fuel to the plunger.
lol I've never had anything left over when I do a big job, but I'm OCD about putting every bolt back into the threads after the part is removed.the spares usually don't really make themselves apparent until reassembly is almost complete...
i used to thing the same about autos, so i bought myself an odyssey with a bad trans. no magic, actually pretty straight forward.wasn't any black magic inside there (unlike auto transmissions lol)
