Injectionpump lubrication?

If your engine has been replaced with a later engine, the pointer and mark on the front pulley has been replaced by a small plate, on the rear of the sump on the pump side of the engine. Remove this plate and a notch can be seen on the side of the hole. Turn the engine slowly until the timeing marks are seen on the flywheel then line up 26 degrees with the notch. Check the marks on the pump. Again, if required, turn the engine again until the pump marks appear. Adjust as required.
This may be the answer to both noise and bad starting. The fibre drive pad may need replacing and can be bought at your local Case/New Holland dealer.

I will try to check the marks you mentioned, but I must read in a "translation bok" to understand it all! Anyway, I think maybe the injektion timeing (I donīt know if thatīs the right word, maybe you understand anyway) is wrong, becouse even if the engine is hot it wonīt start whitout startgas. It smokes ia lot of diesel, and a strange thing is that the "evacuation pipe" from the injektors back to the dieseltank is dry!

Well, maybe the most possible cause of the starting problem is that the engine is worn out?
Luckely there is no problem finding spare parts here in Sweden, Fordson were very common here.

Thanks!

The little overflow pipe is to get rid of excess fuel in the cam box. If a lot of diesel flows from this pipe you have a problem but also, if no diesel has ever come from here you also have a problem.
Do no forget Diesel is a form of light oil. It is not like petrol that tends to "dry" surfaces. In the old petrol/paraffin tractors today, we add diesel to the fuel to ensure that engine parts are lubricated.
Even in the later Simms Minimec pumps where engine oil is used, diesel still forms part of the lubrication system to the pump plungers. You do not find oil in the injectors. Yet the tolerances, pressures and heat are tremendous. Yet diesel is sufficient to lubricate the working parts.
Sounds like your pump may have succumbed to "anno domini" after all, it is nearly 50 years old.
