Pat there is a guy in Loveland Ohio who rebuild my fuel pump (with primer
lever) you may want to ask him on how he does it, his name is Bob and his
e-mail is jsarama@cinci.rr.com , great guy to deal with and he also does one
heck of a job in rebuilding distributors too.

Subject: How to rebuild fuel pump
> Hello all !
>
> Once again, I turn to you for some guidence.
>
> I have looked all over the Internet to see if I could find some "How to"
instructions on rebuilding the Fuel Pump (with prime leaver) on the TR6
motor (Is on my TVR 2500M) and did not find a ruddy thing !
>
> What leads me to this rebuild is my car died at the side of the road
yesterday. Fired up again after a short wait (wondering what to do...) made
it 300'. Waited 15 min's and it fired up again and I made it home(just)
which was about 5 mins's drive and had to feather the gas peddle and keep
RPM's low. My car died because of fuel starvation for sure (rebuilt the
carbs last week which solve many a problems I had) and has run great since.
Yes, there was lots of gas in the tank.
>
> When I go to lift the prime lever I get next to no gas pumped in to the
filter up by the carbs, when there should be a real good "squirt". I lift
the lever and nothing.... a rebuild for sure ?
>
> Please, any one have or know of any instructions on how to do this ? How
to remove the diaphram and the one way valves ?
>
> I can probably figure it out, but would feel much better if I could read
up first.
> Thanks very much.
