Need some advice from the gurus.

Well folks the move has finally been made. I'm now down in Texas after several issues along the way. The first was when I was letting off the throttle it felt like the truck was bucking. If I pressed the clutch in the bucking stopped. I'm thinking it's time for a new Injection pump and injectors. The originals have 190k on them now. the second problem was that during the trip my EGT gauge would start fluttering. The needle would flutter between 1000 and 1100 degrees. I'm waiting for a call back from Autometer on what they think. I'm sure my connections are okay because I soldered and heatshrinked all my connection and the rest of the gauges all work fine. My last question for the day is where would I post a Rotunda Timing meter for sale. I'm sticking with my snap-on and when it goes I'll time it by ear. Thanks in advance guys.

FTE Classifieds for the timing meter.

The bucking may be an IP issue with the internal timing mechanisim.
