RE: [T3] Mechanical fuel pump: re-assembly


Now that Im thinking, the diaphragm had more than one layer, and bloused
like Russ said.  The Replacement I made had at least 2 layers, maybe 3 but
no Blouse.... and if I recall right I tightened the screws with it in the
fully depressed position, so that it wouldn't stretch the diaphragm material
in the extremes of the cycle.

The original diaphram had what is called in the trade, "blousing".
Ridges molded into the material to allow for movement with the outside
trapped between the housings.
