When I started the B this morning there was no familiar "click-click" from the fuel pump. But the car started well and off I went. However on my way home, the car started hesitating like it was runni

Wax in your ears? Seriously, if you ran the carbs dry then reconnected the pump and the filter filled up the pump must be pumping. But if it has suddenly got very quiet, and you are getting what look

You can test the delivery at the carbs by disconnecting fuel line there and turning on ignition. In the worshop manual is a specification for delivery rate, but if the thing pumps regularly and quic

Nope. Basically turned the battery around and rehooked the wires. (of course there was more involved than that) In fact I now have a red ground wire from the battery, which is semi-confusing when you

Replace it without looking at it first? Good heavens no. On the other hand you could replace it then refurbish it as a spare for 30 years hence. My V8 came with an electronic pump and it started play

Okay. That makes sense. Then if the pump is clicking and delivering, what should I check with the carbs? Thanks in advance, Joseph Cianciotti v: 917-455-2455 f: 509-471-1647 e: jmc987@earthlink.net /

If the pump makes audible ticking and adequate delivery into a jar, but not into the float chambers when they have been previously emptied, I would suspect the float valves. If *that* ticks too but s

Since you do not know the actual age of the pump, it would be prudent to buy a new one and to rebuild this one as a spare. You said its performance was sketch even though it passed the delivery test

When the fuel pump is working and is full of fuel, the clicking sound is often dampened so that it cannot be heard. The clicking is the result of the diaphragm snapping back against the pump body, so

What's this about flipping the pump on and off? Has someone added a switch into the pump power circuit? Cheers, CR /// or try http://www.team.net/cgi-bin/majorcool /// Archives at http://www.team.net

You bet'cha. It's a handy dandy security measure. If someone tries to steal the car they only get about 1/4 mile with the fuel in the carbs. Then it stalls and they say "crappy British cars" and leav

I'd like to add a switch to my pumps to prevent theft. If I remember correctly, Denise Thorpe of the list, has installed them on her collection of 67B's. If someone knows exactly how this is done, I'

Actually, the more different ways this is done the better. If we all do it the same way, the car thieves will know about it and just flip the switch. There's a white wire to the pump that connects at
