[Mgs] fuel pump problems, need help

[PaulHunt73]

If you run it when dry it should still chatter with either the inlet or the outlet port blocked, but slower than when both are open.  If you hold your thumb over the inlet, run it then stop it, there should still be a little suction left when you remove your thumb.  Likewise on the outlet there should still be a bit of pressure left.  If the non-return valves are faulty you won't get that.

  Thanks Paul et al. Don't know on the response q's other than technically, you should receive two, one through mgs and the other directly to you. I've sucked and blown and I think there may be a leak on the pull. The diaphragm looks good and is pliable, but I don't know compared to a new one. There doesn't appear to be any cracks. I suspect some of the sealing is old and leaky. I have decent push, just sucky suck.
