Folks.
I am in the process of getting my TR3A running after it sitting for over a year.
The engine was running a week ago after replacing the fuel lines from the tank to the pump and added an inline fuel filter.
Today, I removed the fuel pump glass bowel and cleaned it out.
Now, the fuel pump will not deliver fuel to the fuel pump glass bowel regardless of how long I operate the primer lever on the pump or crank the engine. There is no fuel at the fuel line connection to the front carb float bowel.
There is fuel just below the pump at a splice in the fuel line, but I suppose that could be there by gravity flow from the tank.
Is the logical conclusion that the Victoria British fuel pump has failed even though it was installed just 6 years ago?
Thanks.
Ron
