Default So Close!!!

Fordania is so close to starting up... but I have a couple questions.


1. For some reason I am not getting fuel.. Ihave a new mechanical fuel pump from autozoneand it a clear filter. I cannot see any fuel getting to the filter. Is it possible to put these mechanical pump on wrong?

2. If I get sick of a mechanical pump, I'm thinking about putting a universal electric pump on. I was thinking a universal pump and powering it via a relay connected to wire that goes to the positive side of the coil.


Are there any ideas on fuel system solutions?

Yes, you can put the mechanical fuel pump in wrong. The pump arm must be under the cam. If you get an electric, consider the inside the tank models.

How do I make sure the arm goes in the right place.

I can see oil on the arm and there is a slight wear mark.
