Maybe its raining somewhere and a guru is on his computer to answer these
questions.

I've got the pump from my '73 TR-6 off.  

1. If the diaphragm were leaking, one should smell gas on the engine side of
the pump, right?
2.  If the diaphragm were bad, and you apply lung pressure to the inlet
side, would you hear or feel a pressure drop/leak?
3.  If you applied lung pressure to the outlet side and the diaphragm were
bad, would one be able to get the cam to move?

TIA
