Default Re: Fuel Pump Issues

The cam lift for the fuel pump is about 0.2"
Check the flexible rubber hose that connects the fuel line on the firewall to the fuel pump. If old and cracked, replace it. Some are not resistant to alcohol in fuel and will swell internally nearly shut. That could be the reason for low pump output.

With the pump output line disconnected from the carburetor, crank the engine (IGNITION OFF!). I should spurt at least a teaspoon with each stroke.
