simms vacuum governed injector pump internals

Post by nzMark »

Hello All,
I am looking to find a diagram of internals of a simms vacuum governed injector pump, mine seems to overfuel engine when under load, runs clear until load applied. i have turned fuel screw in as much as possible (not normal position) and most smoke gone but i think there is something missing from end of rack that is letting it open to far. also excess fuel button does not "click" in, or out when engine starts. engine by way has been rebuilt.
any suggestions or diagrams would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
Mark

You can work on the pump in a clean environment. Don´t let it open over night or so.
Remove the cap with the eight bolts. Then you will see the rack and can feel if it is loose.
You can remove the cold start unit. You will have to remove a nut inside the pump.
The unit can easily be opened to see what’s wrong. Also the diaphragm unit can be opened to check.
Kind regards, Henk

Mark, if you Google "Fordson Major Diesel Fuel System" then scroll down to PDF "Fuel System-Fordson. se" you'll get the Simms pump and pneumatic governor manual.

Mark, I googled Fordson Major Diesel Fuel System again this evening and had no problem accessing it. Suggest you try again -- but please post whether or not you are successful.
