After over a year & new Pistons rings & rod bearings I fired up the Refreshed 8BA in my ‘35! The good news is I primed the carb & she Immediately fired up & sounded great for about 5 seconds. Figured it’d take a couple primes to get the fuel from the filled tank so proceeded about 4 or 5 primes. Each time sound great but ‘The Bad’ no fuel never showed up in the fuel bowl? Used same fuel pump rod, same gasket, fuel pump only had couple thousand miles on it. Newish gas tank, used Gas Stabilizer in tank & ran engine before removing to insure gas with Staybill went in gas line. Ideas? Should I try priming the glass bowl? Are fuel pumps sensitive after running to being unused for a year plus?
