fuel issues
well i just put a new tank in kindly thanks to loan rangie who i got it off but now i connected it and every thing but now im not getting fuel to the crabies, do i need to bleed the fuel lines, the fuel pupe is working i think well it clicks like its working so any one got ideas???
Have you disconnected the fuel line at the inlet side of the filter and turned the ignition on, like Loanrangie said? If you are getting fuel there, check your filter for blockages.
If not, disconnect the fuel line from the outlet of the pump, turn the ignition on and see if fuel comes out there. If so, obviously something is wrong between there and the filter.
If not, check that you have your hoses on the right outlets on the tank. Also, fill a jar with fuel, put a bit of hose from the fuel pump inlet into the jar, and another from the pump outlet back into the jar, then turn ignition on, to check if the pump is actually pumping.

Duck, i distinctly remember telling you and your brother to put 1/2 a litre of fuel in it to flush out the crap since it has been sitting under my house for 6 years !duck wrote:all fixed now, there was shit in the tank
