>I am trying to replace the fuel pump in my 74 TR6 with a new pump made by
Moprod, apparently a UK company. It is a model FP32. It appears to be a
replacement, although the actuation arm is a little shorter. It did
contact
the cam, offered resistance, and fit OK. I got the fuel lines hooked up,
but the pump is not pumping. I cracked the inlet and outlet fittings, and
there is gas at the inlet, but not the outlet. I have cranked the engine a
number of times. <
Jay, I have encountered the situation where the check valves were stuck
closed and wouldn't allow gasoline to pass. This was on a TR3 where I
could disassemble the pump and break loose the valves by hand. It's been
fine since). I am not familiar with your pump and don't know the best way
to go about checking the valves but maybe you can figure it out.
Good luck
