Solved the problem of air in the fuel line.
It ended up being the fuel pump. This surprised me seeing that the pump was only 2 years old. As I stated before I placed a clear section of tubing between the fuel filter output and the injector pump and cranked her over and there was air in the...
Hi
Sorry gentleman but I tried searching the internet and had no luck. Guess I was just not asking the right questions. As for the TM's I was not aware that I would be able to find a none military part number within them.

Hi
Well I hooked up a clear line from the input on the fuel pump to the line coming from the fuel tank. Had the wife crank her over for about 30 sec. with no air showing up in the line.
So the problem I think has to be between the fuel pump output and the input to the fuel filter. I cant...

How would I check the line from the pump to the tank for air?
If the fuel pump diaphragm was bad would it just not pump fuel? Could it be something with the vent line on the pump?

Hi
I did the fuel into the jar and it looked like I was getting air in the fuel. To make sure I added a two foot section of clear hose from the pump to the fuel filter and turned her over. It shows a lot of air in with the fuel. I took the fuel tank cap of and still the same. I'm not real...
Hi
I tried removing the fuel tank cap and it made no difference. Also the fuel filter drain valve is tight. She started for me yesterday. I had to crank her over for about 15 sec. with no smoke then she started puffing smoke and started but would kill. I did this a couple times and found out...
OK
She started for me and I let it run for a couple minutes. Came back 20 minutes later and she started but started to serge and then killed. I did this a couple more times with the same results.

Hi
I had changed the fuel filter last year and as much fuel is coming out of the line from the fuel pump going into the filter as is coming out of the filter so I think the filter is fine.

Hi
Ok, I checked the air filter and it was fine. I Unhooked both the input and output on the fuel filter lines and fuel is coming out real good. I unhooked one of the injector lines at the cylinder and fuel does weep out of the line. I just don't know how much should be coming out.
Any thoughts...
Hi
I posted this problem before and the responses didn't help. Still thanks for the help. Anyway I unhooked the fuel line coming out of the fuel filter and fuel is coming out. One question I have is should it be a steady stream or a pulsing one? Also someone said to check the automatic fuel...
Hi
Was driving home and she started acting like she wasn't getting fuel. Started lunging and as I turned up my driveway she killed and would not start again just would turn over.
I pulled the hose off the output on the fuel filter and fuel is coming out. So what do you think I should check...
Hi
