Fuel delivery on 3208 and coolant check questions
The injector pump has an integral lift pump and it's good to have a pusher pump
to help. You need a pressure/vacuum gage on the fuel line. The point where it
connects to the injector pump. Pusher pumps are located behind the rear axle on
the inner frame rail on FCs. As yours was a NA it might not have one. The
copper line is marginal in diameter and flex lines can be a problem letting in
air. Consider the fuel column as a hydrualic brake system, a little air is real
bad. You probably know that as a diesel owner.

I did have the block heater on when I fired it up. Perhaps that many
revolutions is normal. I'm used to glow plugs on my Mercedes. But it
did fire on one or two cylinders first, which made me think it was
starved for fuel. I had noticed the slight fuel drip prior during my
purchase inspection.
