Thank you for the information. From what I understand from those intructions is sounds difficult not to disturb the timing, especially considered how hard to reach this is. I can see the timing cover, but I can't really understand that it's possible to see anything down the hole if I remove it, since I can under no circumstances get my head directly above the hole. I've tried doing such things with mirrors before, but that tends to be a much better idea in theory than reality.
Even though it's not much to think about because I'd probably need both a different "adapter" connecting the pump to the compressor and different injector pipes, I happen to have several Minimec pumps from Ford D-series 330 cu's. It's a bit annoying having those around when I know that they too have been used for this engine while my pump is currently "dead".
I think I'll have to consider carefully what to do next..
