Hey guys,
So as a bunch of you know, I have my fuel filler neck fail some time ago which allowed rain and snow melt to seep into my fuel tank and froze and clog up just about everything from tank to filter.
Well I have a freshly cleaned tank and pickup installed, new filler neck and nozzle, new fuel lines, new filter and am trying to get the ole slug fired back up. I have now found that I seem to not be getting any fuel from my lift pump. I disconnected the fuel line from pump to filter and put a jar on the end of it, cranked for several 10 second intervals and got exactly zero fuel out of it. The line is clear, the line from tank to pump does have fuel in it, just nothing coming out of it.
I unbolted the mechanical lift pump and the arm has almost zero travel on it. I dont remember how much travel these have when new, but mine moves maybe 1/8 of an inch and stops dead. I submerged the intake side in a jar of fuel and hand pumped for a good while and it never pushed any fuel out the other side.
So, I am interested in these Dura Lift electric pumps. I have ordered one along with the brass fittings and the block off plate. Totaled about 132$. I will post more once I receive them on tuesday.
