At home I removed the fuel pump (a new replacement from classic parts made in canada)opened it up expecting to see a torn diaphragm, but one of the valves fell out of the body! It was lying loose inside the pump! Therefore no ability to pump. It seems the valves are just pressed into the body and if you are unlucky like me you will get a dud. I hammered it in with a punch, but will also install a backup electric pump. These new parts one get these days quality are suspect. Anyway, thought you guys can find this helpfull. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 Riding in the Passing Lane | | Riding in the Passing Lane Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 | Its a shame we can't by good dependable parts anymore. The guy that built it is not the one stranded in the middle of a dark cold night.
They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing. 1972 Chevy c10 Cheyenne SuperIn the Gallery Forum | | |
