Been doing a lot of parts scrounging and problem solving over the last few days. Kinda stuck on some wiring issues with the injector pump. 89Diesel, maybe you can share what you did. Apparently there is the fuel cut solenoid in there (which I know I have to wire to 12v switched power), but there is also an accel switch/enrichment solenoid type thing in there for the California trucks. Not sure if or how I need to wire that system, as the wiring diagram is pretty fuzzy and I don;t have all the components to that circuit anymore. I think I am going to hook it up to a switch and see if there is a big difference once I get the truck running.

Anyway, here's the concrete stuff I have accomplished lately.

Starter solenoid for glow plugs, mounted inside passenger fender.

Oil cooler and mounts, just in front of AC condenser and behind grille. Not finished quite yet.

I found the tach feed, apparently there is a revolution pick up in the injector pump that feeds it(White wire in the bundle that comes out of Injector pump). I pulled the Ranger tach and I'm integrating it into the Mitsubishi cluster, as I don't think hooking up to the stock tach will give me a correct readout.

I extended some of my power steering hoses which allowed me to relocate the reservoir to the passenger firewall and further away from exhaust heat.

Still got some wiring and stuff to do, more updates soon hopefully.
