Hi forum, I am in the process of rebuilding a D24TIC engine (my first time) and I bought
this refurbished pump off of eBay from what I would think is a reputable seller (6k feedbacks and 100% positive rate).
The pump looks mint, but when I came to the part in the Volvo manual where I have to disconnect the cold start device, I noticed this came already in the disconnected position - despite being under tension. The CSD lever cannot be moved in either direction even when applying a lot of force.
As an extra bit of info (maybe irrelevant), the ball stud on the CSD lever does not touch the downward tab of the throttle arm, so I assume the cold start device is currently in the "warm" position.
Please check this video to understand what I mean:

And here the illustration in the Volvo manual as part of timing the pump:
I contacted the seller (the name is turbo_lv on eBay) and they insist the pump is assembled correctly.
Did anyone else buy one of these and ran into the same issue? Or am I missing something? Very thankful for any tip (or confirmation that this is indeed not right)
