HI:
<< Need some help. I had a leak in my fuel pump. I bought a new fuel pump
before attempting to take off the old one. The new one fits okay but I
cannot reconnect the fuel line to the carburetors because the distributer
neck is in the way of the connection. However, I found that there was
actually nothing wrong with my old fuel pump. The slug that holds the
interior parts in place had slipped out and oil was coming out of that.
I decided to replace my old pump which I was able to repair. Now my
problem.
When I went to reconnect the pipe from the carbs to the fuel pump I
discovered there was actually two of the small brass sleeves fitted on the
pipe going into the fuel pump. Everything I see, including the Bentley
Manual only shows one sleeve and since I could not get the nut to screw on
to
the fuel pump, for some unknown reason I decided to remove the second
sleeve.
I did this and attempted to start my TR6. I saw a gusher of gas coming out
of that connection. My question is, should there be one or two sleeves at
this connection and how should they face. Any help would be
appreciated....thanks Virgil 75 tr6
