Thanks for the info on the fuel lift pump. I received it within a week from LSM. The new pump has better alignment for the fuel line in and the line out. Also the manual hand pump is very finger friendly. My thumbs are still numb from trying to prime with the old model. Had a heck of a time eliminating air from the system but we are back up and running. John I found the nuts holding the pump were not overly tight and I suspect this was the source of oil residue around the motor. hopefully the end of my oil leaks. Thanks all. |

...depends where the fuel is leaking from. I had a fuel leak in the same area and I found that the 2 (13mm) nuts retaining that housing were loose. There are also 2 small nuts holding a bottom plate.
A leak could also inject air in the line which would allow the engine to run for a bit then shut down. john |

Any advise or suggestions on a replacement fuel pump? Engine shut down and I noticed fuel leaking when trying to prime the system with the lever on the pump. I think it's time.
