The new ECCO fuel pump delivers more fuel than the Facet pump at the correct pressure. This time I blew out the steel fuel lines with compressed air. Apparently that did the trick. Blowing air in the tank to pressurize it was not successful. This time the pump was self priming. <div dir="auto"> When I was running the Facet pump, fuel would fill the clear fuel filter only at the bottom of the clear capsule. I never understood how the car ran OK like that. Now the fuel filter is full under pump pressure and no overflow from the carb. With the ECCO pump the car started immediately cold. With the Facet pump it would take a little longer to fire up. Now it won't idle, but I attribute that to old gas sitting in the carb for over eight months. I plan to take it out tomorrow and try to blow it out on the freeway. If that doesn't do it. The single HIF44 carb comes off for disassembly and cleaning. Woohoo! Alive! Just in time for the new gas prices.<div dir="auto">Mike MacLean</div></div></div>
