    Could anyone help me with a measurement please? What's the diameter of the lobe on the camshaft that drives the fuel pump push rod, and what's its eccentricity please?

    I want to build a test rig for my ever-expanding collection of mechanical fuel pumps so I can have some confidence that they are within spec and in good order before I bolt them on to the bus. I also want to prove to myself that it was the brand new 'replacement ' pump that caused my conflagration on the M25 last year. I'll do a full write up if I ever succeed! Thanks in advance.
