The logical places for the pump to leak are at the hose connections or at the
input shaft

Got tinsnips? You should be able to take a piece of tin and cut
something workable. I think that tool is more of a timesaver, than a
necessity. MOST special tools are not a necessity, if you can apply
some time and ingenuity.

Yes, that's what I was thinking, fashion some sort of round stiff material
to fit between the chain and the teeth to allow ease of R/R.
I'm going to get a quote on this tool regardless, if it's only $20 or so I
may spring for it.

Check to see if you have a damper in the linkage somewhere, or a

Otherwise, oscillating idle speed hot is probably not going to go

You have at least two glow plugs bad, maybe more. It's possible the

True. That car was not washed out with steam. It was not even empty.
Cold steam (~250 deg F), as used for steam cleaning in atmospheric

more than 2 Hg.
A typical railcar is rated for 40 psi pressure and 12 Hg vacuum.
