| Navistar now has a repair kit for these pumps(1842906C91)with an improved(longer threaded-oil ferry plug)that works even if the hole is stripped out from the original plug. The pump needs to removed and repaired in a vice due to a check ball that is held in place by the ferry plug. The ball sits in a seat and is bypassed by a rod on the back of the ferry plug that holds it in place. If the ferry plug is removed on the vehicle the ball and another part are flushed out by the oil in the pump and resorvior. The ball is now a serviceable part(1833830C1) and the pump and engine will not operate without it. The kit was $18 and change. A reman pump is $624 with a $150 core charge. The ferry plug should be torqued to 168 lbf-in. The housings strip out if overtorqued, especially with the original shallow threaded plug. |

Joe, THANKS!!!!!!!
This is getting PRINTED!
I know ALL about the "ball", I chased it all over the floor Thursday evening, and after 5 tries got it back into place properly and it started right up. BTW, I did NOT remove the pump, and eventhough I "dropped the ball" three times, it only took two hours start to finnish. Needless to say, our customer was VERY pleased at the $$$$ saved. |
If you want customer service, you NEED an International! |

| IHC has a field service bulletin out on this problem, if you can get it to a dealer they will do it N/C. Why pay for it? It's their screw up, let them pay for it. |
Live each like it's going to be your last, one day you'll be right! |

| And thank you also,Joe. Yesterday we had an engine that refused to start after some work was carried out on the HP Pump. After reading your article, a hand and knees detective job on the shop floor ,soon located the missing ball. |

If we had a nickle for every pump we replaced we'd have two pockets full of money!! NOW we'll have to do it again when/if they fail to use the longer fittings, etc. At least this time it won't have to be done repeatedly. This fix works and we're really glad. We do our own in house warranty, and while being reimbursed is nice, being on the road is MUCH better!!

Hi,
I just went through the same problem and can not get the ball back in the right place. I do not want to take everything apart again and was wondering if you could explain to me how you did it with the pump still attached to the engine please.
Thanks. |
