I know the rod is not attached to the cam, but doesn't the cam actuate the fuel pump by pushing down on the rod and in turn make the rocker arm on the pump go down? If this is true wouldn't it be difficult to get the fuel pump rocker arm in the block if the cam is the wrong position? Once it gets to a certain point the rod stops, what is it contacting? I was under the assumption that is was contacting a cam lobe, and that by cranking the engine over by hand you could turn the cam so the rod will go further up. Maybe I am just all confused, so if someone could staighten me out I would appreciate it
super-k, thanks for the help it was a pain, but I did what you said and got the pump in, I had no problem keeping the rod up once I pushed it up it stayed up, never had that happen before
