Jiffer Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 probably the wrong section but I havent found one on V6s, I have just had my new OSF delivered but having a few teething problems, It wouldnt start at first and I got it to no fuel getting through, it fires up a treat when fuel is poored into the top of the carb, seems as if the fuel pump is shot, but I can pump fuel when I push it by hand, but it wont seem to when I fit it back to the engine? I have it conected to a clear fuel pipe into a jug off fuel so I can see if fuel moves up the pipe but no joy, I have checked to see if it had a nylon spacer but no, and also made sure the push rod is still in place and is (sort of silly thing I would do), its as if the cam/drive or whatever is inside the engine that drives the pump is faulty, but have no Idea what's in there? anyone had a similar problem, I am thinking of doing away with it and fitting a facet leccy one and regulator if necessary. any help would be greatfully recived
deltamal Posted May 10, 2011 Report Posted May 10, 2011 Leccy pumps are good, take the pipe off the carb that comes from the fuel pump, and turn the engine over, see if the fuel comes out, if it does check that float level valve in the carb is not stuck, or get a (Leccy pump!)
