[Healeys] fuel delivery problems

Richard:
Try putting a little air pressure in to the gas tank with your air
compresser and a rag to prime the gas pump.  I had the same problem and that
solved it for me.

Subject: [Healeys] fuel delivery problems

I suspect my new SU squarebody fuel pump but am not sure.  I don't get fuel
at
the carbs.  I have two in-line fuel filters - one between the tank & the
pump
and one before the carbs in the flex line.  The pump "runs wild" delivering
no
fuel to the fron carb.  If I block or pinch the flex fuel line pressure
builds
until the pump stops.  When let go it runs wild again.  Any ideas?
