Hi guys
New here and hoping for some thoughts and solutions.
My 6.5 has been running as a mechanical motor for ten years.
12 months ago it had a electrical fire in the engine bay and the motor was dusted with a powder fire extinguisher. It was rebuilt and running well with 2500 kilometers on the new motor when the oil cooler line split and cooked the crank. A strip down, regrind of the crank and line bore of the block were required. The engine was reassembled and fitted. After bleeding the fuel system an attempt to start was made. The engine fired and reved to about 3500 rpm and shut down. The fuel supply and return lines have all been cleared and air removed. The engine continues to start run to a high idle of around 3500 rpm and shuts down.
Any thoughts or help would be appreciated rembering that I am using a mechanical injection pump. If it was an electrical pump with a pmd I would look there.
This is my work vehicle and I am struggling with it off the road so all help ans suggestions will be looked at and checked. It was running so well befor the oil line split so I am at a loss.
