Re: [T3] Electric fuel pump w/manual: How to?


<x-flowed>How? I have one of those cheap fuel filters in the engine compartment so I can see if there's fuel in the system (the REAL filter is up front). The viewing filter is normally dry after a week or so. I don't smell gas in the oil. This happened with my old carbs and with the newer ones I'm currently borrowing. Both sets of carbs are Dell 40mm.

I don't know what pump I have. It's the bolt-together unit. Here's a picture of it installed:

If you follow the fuel line from the pump upward you'll see my viewing filter (which is very clean, BTW).


Yeah, I'm a little puzzled as to what's going on...À?
