So today I bench tested both pumps......


The brand new electric pump makes noise but does not actually pump!!  The cam lobe on this engine must be just flat enough to no pump enough.

Bought a block off plate today, exchanged the bad electric pump for a new one. Wired it all up and it fired right up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


IT'S ALIVE!!!!!! For the first time in a YEAR I pulled it forward into it's storage spot UNDER IT'S OWN POWER!!!!!

I still have lots of things to do before trying to drive it. But that was enough for today.

Did you remove the fuel pump pushrod? Or was it even in there?

It was in there.  It was not originally in this motor. I had to buy one. (and now I know why it was not in there the first time)
