    The pump mark lines up exactly with the mark on the engine. Even so I did move it a width to the left of the engine mark. I will try it the other side. A little goes a long way. My Ford 4000 diesel, a 1968 model, runs a couple degrees advanced.

    Injectors were just rebuilt by the injector pump shop. I cannot find a compression tester that will work on my engine short of loading and towing 70 miles one way and waiting for them to get around to it

    Running Rich?

    Spark plug gap can affect the mileage and the black sooty thing. You might try increasing gaps in increments if you are on the low side or decreasing if you are on the low side. Also plug mfg., composition and heat range could be the culprit(s). My 84 350 also liked 12 degrees advance @800...

    What rating tires do I need for my trailer? 16 ‘ x 6.5’ rated for 7000 lbs GVW 2 axle trailer is 2000 lbs leaving 5000 lbs for cargo. I use it to transport my 1968 Ford 4000 tractor or1968 Massey Ferguson 135 tractor. The Ford is 4850 lbs so yes I do push it but transport rarely exceeds 55 mph.

    Where do these wires go?

    Hooked it all up today. Toggle switch works great. Charging starts @ just over 500 rpm. Continues to charge @ 13.7 volts after I turn off the toggle switch. Once I stop the motor ammeter drops to 0. Thanks again all!
