You just have to be very careful pulling and installing the top cover, I always leave the governor spring assembly and throttle shaft with the main body of the pump, but since the manual shutoff lever is on the top cover you have to weasel it past the spring cage, I found you need to manipulate the manual shutoff lever while removing and installing the top cover. I tell you it’s sooo much easier to do on a Cummins VE pump since they have the other style spring.
I started wiring the glow plugs (thanks George!) and the tach, it all works! Now I just need to tidy it up. I’m in the process of building an aluminum battery tray also.
