It was a clogged fuel filter. As usual: 2 steps forward 1 step back. I had to repair some fuel line that was weak and disturbed by yours truly!. Well, I still smell like gas. The electric diaphragm fuel pump seems to have a problem. It clicks like mad all the time. If I turn the pump on with the engine not running, the pressure will slowly rise above 10 psi! I took off a Carter pump (too noisy and it whined all the time). I like th diaphragm types. Probably nostalgia for the old SW that was on it for years. Jegs does not have anything but the Carter. Ditto for Summit. JC Whitney lists a couple. Does anyone have a recommendation or know about either one of these? Both are less than U$50.00.
