I just finished converting a 22re to a 22r. got it all put together and in my truck and now its not getting fuel. All the parts are off of my old engine. I just cant figure it out. Is something different on the 22re?

lobukbuild

fuel pumps are different, injected and carb. which pump you trying to use? did you remove the one from the tank and use the one for the carb set up? did you accidently connect to the wrong line ie return line? wiring?

The truck had a 22r and I converted a 22re to a 22r to out back in it. Everything is off the old engine which worked fine.

A 22r has a mechanical fuel pump on the engine correct? Have you checked it? Is there fuel in the tank? Correct lines hooked up?

You did remove the fuel pump in the tank??

Maybe your running a fuel pressure regulator without one you will push past the needle valve and fill the cylinders with fuel

then maybe the manual pump

Just which way did you go??

Electric pump no signal to turn pump on??

Manual pump lines not hooked up or on wrong ??

Manual pump to weak to pull through electric pump and efi fuel filter??

No fuel in tank??

It pretty much is one of these.

ok a 22re converted to a 22r using all the parts from the original motor and installed in the truck that had a 22r originaly. its usually the opposite. you said no fuel. do you mean no fuel to carb or fuel in carb not getting to the motor from the carb? as said already, bad line, fiter and or pump. are you using efi filter? line get pinched? mechanical pump arm/rod riding on th ecentric properly? wrong line connected? needle stuck in carb? major vac leak between carb and head? which head did you use? did you install the ecentric if you used the efi head? if you had the head off is the cam timed correctly? (not drawing air thru the carb will not draw fuel thru either) these are just a few things that come to mind. hope it helps.

I may be new here, but I do believe all the bases have been covered; solution should be as mentioned elsewhere above. I know,not much help!

I believe ive gotten my fuel line mixed up. Im having trouble finding a diagram.

twoyotas86

I cant figure it out. I cant even find what i need in my book.

Just what fuel pump are you using??

Electrical??

Manual bolted to the head??

Lets start there.

To keep it simple!! We will work from here!!

twoyotas86

Manuel. Bolted to the head. I have the 3 lines to it correctly. Its the 2 hard lines that turn to rubber and run up by the starter that have got me.

You might have marked them.

Does the one line still have the banjo fitting from where it bolted to the filter??

The only other way is to look at the fuel pump bracket and figure out which is which and trace it to the engine compartment.

Does the efi cam have a lobe to drive the fuel pump?

It is the same cam, the 22r requires a oblong dish that drives the pump. You can see it attached to the cam in the following pic, just infront of the chain.

ifi cam will not have the ecentric in place (installed) you would have to remove it from the 22r cam and bolt it to the 22re cam. it is a seperate piece.
