[Healeys] Fuel Pump

[Warthodson at aol.com]

To quote SU (service sheet AUA211, October 1959)  " then  turn to the 
diaphragm. and in order to restore its original pliability, ruckle  each of the 
two fabric layers vigorously between the thumb and fingers, after  which it 
can be reassembled and carefully reset for the 'throw over'."

Sounds  like a diaphragm stiffening up from non use. It might also benefit 
from  loosening the throw over adjustment by another hole or two.
