Super MD Injector pump issues

Hello,



I have been restoring a SMD from my Grandfather and have had quite the Inj. Pump experience. Initially I had a reputable shop go through the injectors and pump and told them do it right. I had pump governor issues after that and they wouldn't help me out. So I sent the pump to a well known reputable pump shop and they resolved the governor problem. Sadly, this pump started dumping diesel into the pump oil reservoir right away and I had to have them send me another pump. So this "new" pump has two issues. The first issue is this pump uses/loses oil. No sump dilution with diesel, it just is low. I added 12cc to top it off after an hour run. I have not heard of this before. The second issue is this pump idles like a pulling tractor at the lowest area of the rpm range. This issue is less annoying than the first. Now I had already called the pump shop manager about the funky idle before I realized it was consuming oil and I am sure he probably doesn't want to hear from me again. I also don't really want to yank the darn pump off again and have to fight the fuel leaks all over. On the other hand I don't want to run the pump out of oil either. I'm afraid a 4 hour run would really take the oil level down.



What do you guys think?



Thanks,

Do they warranty their work? If so I think they really deserve the chance to make their repair right

Judging by how much money you probably spent with them, unless they told you they weren't going to stand behind the repair for whatever reason, I think you have every reason to believe it should be repaired right. Send it back.
