Just thought I'd send out a email to let you guys that replied about my
Humvee problems. I got the injection pump back this morning and put it back
on and it cured my bad smoke problem. No missing or slow cranking. So it was
the pump that was causing my woes. I sent a email earlier but never did see
it so I am sending this one. Thanks,
Brian
