<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Hey WPTA,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I’m an auto enthusiast, and last year decided to make my 7<sup>th</sup> car a 1980 TR7 which has (intermittently) been a fun project car,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">After buying it last year and changing all fluids (in addition to the rebuilding the rear brakes plus installing new brake master cylinder) , I’ve enjoyed putting a few miles on it, but I’ve come across a new issue.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I’m not getting fuel to the engine which I’ve narrowed down to one of two possible issues.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I’ve replace some but not all fuel lines, and am seeing fuel getting to the mechanical fuel pump (verified by removing the input hose), and have yet to diagnose if fuel is leaving the fuel pump and getting to the carbs.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The other issue I believe exists, is that, as a post-millennial, I need someone with more experience and tools than I have to help me balance my carbs.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Any chance another WPTA member nearby (I’m in 15212) would be able to help a guy out this Sunday afternoon or anytime next weekend?
