There is a couple of M10's in the tool box, they won't work? Sorry to bother you but do you have a picture? Thanks

There is so much love going around here Bill it feels like my beard just got out of the shower! LOL
I'll have to see if I can find my tester in trailer being packed up for the move Glenn. As far as I know, my kit didn't have an M10 fitting in it and the M10 thread is what the GP's use. I'm trying to cut and paste a pic from my phone, hopefully it works.

My truck is(well was) back on the road because of the regulator you gave me.Yet you would not let me pay for it.I have seen in several threads where you are helping out others.Ill be honest here,its things like that that make me want to be active on here and at least attempt to help others through their problems even when my junk is doing fine. So yes it might be a bit much but it would just be all returning the favor. I am going to speak nothing else of it but don't sell your self short.

It could if it were losing enough oil that the injectors couldn't build pressure enough to fire. It may not be o-rings, but I gotta guess something and it is one of the only things that you haven't been able to physically check.

Todd, the kit I got has two M10 fittings in it, but the problem I see is the end of the hose has a 90* quick connect and I don't think it will fit down in there.

Thanks Aaron. It's not that I'm selling myself short, I just wouldn't feel right about you guys doing that. Like I said before, just the fact that you guys were willing to do it means more to me than having the AE, so there is really no need for you all to do it. Besides, Tyler and I had already discussed going in half on it after Christmas, and I'm buying Mike's scangauge, so I'm good to go! But again, a BIG Thanks to all you guys for offering, you made me feel really good!!!!!

I'm going to try swapping the solenoids one at a time tomorrow Nate, and if that doesn't do it, I'll wait until I get the scangauge, and see what it says, then, maybe, the injectors will come out.

Todd this is the one on their web site...12 Piece Diesel Engine Compression Tester

But this is the one I got, same model #, but many more pieces. It has a long M10, and a short M10.

Hmmmmm that's the same kit I bought. I guess I never really looked to see if the parts would work or not, I was under the assumption it wouldn't and bought the Parker fittings, which perfectly. They were only a couple of extra bucks. The parking fitting to a 1/8" by 12" grease wip to 1/8" female to female NPT fitting is what I added to the kit and voila. If you guys are still having troubles, PM me your numbers and we can go over it.

Bill if it turns out to be injectors, when I get Mikes, maybe I could send you mine, then you send your cores to Alex. Lol.

The two long fitting I was thinking would work but the strange thing is they have a valve at the end. Maybe they are check valves, I guess that would make sense. And your right about that 90* angle Bill, for us I think straight on would fit better.

After mine was built, the only 90 in it was from the actual gauge.

I really don't think it's my injectors Todd. I jumped the gun when I changed the one I changed. I can get a .003 feeler gauge under the armature plates on all my injectors, and Jim says that is great. I think I've got a bad solenoid or wiring problem. I've got plenty of solenoids to try, so I'm getting back on it in the morning.

Glenn, when I pull my valve cover ( again LOL!!) tomorrow, I'll pull out a GP and check those fittings to see if they fit.

Glenn, I recognize the 1/8" 12" grease whip and the 1/8" female to female NPT fitting but what is the other thing in that photo? That's not an M10-1/8 Parker fitting. The pic in the link that I posted is the Parker fitting that I bought. Maybe tomorrow I can find the box that's packed in the moving trailer and snap a true pic of what I have.

That's suppose to be a M10 Parker fitting top left of the grease whip. They didn't have one with a 1/8 fitting on the other end so they gave me an adapter, that big thing is 1/8 on the end. Don't you need two 1/8 female to female fitting, one for each end of the grease whip? Sorry, I'm being REAL thick headed about this, LOL

Ya Bill, that would be great if you checked that out!
