Pump Pump Pump
Inside the fuel pump are two valves one for the inlet and one for the outlet they are never open at the same time. The flexing of the diaphragm sucks fuel into the pump and also forces it up the line into the carburettor. The valves are spring loaded well should be the inlet valve was missing it’s spring!
Removed the fuel tank and flushed it and the lines out, bought a fuel pump kit and rebuilt the fuel pump. Now when it was all assembled the car still failed to proceed Why?
The flexible metal fabric covered hose was constricted, fuel would flow through but not enough to run the engine at a speed above idle but by this time I had rebuilt the carby!
Why is it that it can often be the simplest thing?
$15.00 for a hose and its going again
Anguish and gnashing of teeth, Priceless.
