    Fuel delivery issue

    Yes, I did not put it back in after flow testing. I was too busy today to take it out, but it was running well last night. I need to lead out the mixture a tad too

    Fuel delivery issue

    I think I will give that a try Don. If it doesn't work than I am going to have to find a way to get the mechanical pump rod replaced. Either get the plug out or tear the motor down to get cam out. Not many choices left.

    Fuel delivery issue

    oops, The pump is rated at 7PSI max. 97GPH. Still the flow rate is low, approx an ounce per second (30 sec to pump 32 oz). I guess it is time to look for a stronger pump that is of a size I can mount closer to fuel tank

    I cannot run the mechanical pump, it needs a push rod and I have not been able to remove the pipe plug. The electric pump is the only pump I have available at this time. Tank was completely flushed last year when I had it out. It has new sending unit assembly. I only have 5 inches of rubber fuel...

    Fuel delivery issue

    Tank is very clean. I had it out last year and redid all fuel and vapor lines. It also got all new sending unit assembly. Tank is full with 90 octane non ethanol. There is a new fuel filter (in-line) between regulator and carb.

    Interesting turn of events

    UPDATE: It badly needs a choke ! I ran a short wire to the choke lever and pulled it around the fuel inlet line. Two pumps of the pedal and she started right up. The choke pull off opened the plate just after starting and I just let it run. I eventually took the wire off. Now I can go ahead and...
