Inject Pump Timing for 1982 Datsun 810 Maxima Diesel

[John Robertson]

The injector pump drive belt broke. I bought a new belt, but can find no information on how to time the pump. Can anyone help me?

If the belt broke, you need to get the IP pulley in the correct position in relation to TDC on the crank pulley when installing the new belt; probably don't have to retime the IP (i.e. rotate the IP housing on its elongated mounting holes) unless you can verify it was not properly timed before the belt broke.

This has been covered in this forum, complete w/ diagrams of the markings on the IP pulley.

Do some searching on this site, you will find it.

If I had a faster connection right now, I would find it for you.
