<p>[QUOTE="Cjkcustoms, post: 11864119, member: 330037"]Hi guys I have a 1980 mack I'm trying to get running correctly. It starts and runs but when it idles for about 5 min it stumbles and stalls out. When this happens It cranks long and finally starts. I thought it was sucking air so I replaced all the fuel lines as I thought it was sucking air. The fuel filters are new and have been filled I've primed all the way to the injection pump and this still happens. I'm a mechanic but not a diesel mechanic. I understand how the engines work but when It comes to drivability issues I'm laxed. I'd like to exhaust all possibilities before I shoot the lock off the wallet for an injection pump[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
