Re: 1960 GMC Suburban
I posted this in the main section, but thought I would post it her too:
My 60 305 appeared to have a fuel pump issue. Bought a new manual pump and it wouldn't work either. Kept chasing and checking for line leaks etc.
Even checked with a vacuum tester which appeared to show it sucking but still not pushing through.
Finally decided to bench test the new one with a bottle of gas and it worked fine. Then I bench tested the old one and it worked fine.
Started to think that the issue was inside where the pump lever rides on the lobe (?), but then remembered that the vacuum test appeared to show it creating a vacuum.
SO...... Any ideas ?
I really want to stay with the original manual style, but even thinking of running a hidden electric through the manual one..
