I posted last fall about getting my old sawmill power unit running again. Can't find that old post. It was suggested I run some injector cleaner though it, and this spring I did just that. It runs really great, It only hunted on the governor about thirty seconds and then smoothed out and run nice. No smoke whatsoever. Only a little puff when coming off idle to say 1500 rpm.
Exhaust stack is dry. I worked over the PTO clutch, put a nice center outlet exhaust manifold, I had a piece of 4" Stainless Steel pipe I used as a stack.
I would like to eliminate the air compressor and move the PT fuel pump up to the auxiliary drive, anyone have knowledge of the couplings involved in removing the air compressor and driving the fuel pump direct? I would also like to find a different pulley for my water pump/fan drive. Mine has a big pulley for the water pump and two for the fan belts and one the same size as the fan that I used to drive a hydraulic pump for my sawmill system. I would like a pulley that has four pulleys the same size not one big and three smaller, That way my water pump would use the same size belt as the fan does. I could also fit a alternator mounted on the auxiliary drive that the air compressor won't allow right now. I would drive it off the spare water pump pulley. Who would have 855 Cummins parts of this vintage? I wish I could post a video of it running but I have not succeeded in posting video's.
