First, I know I've got some minor fuel leaks in a couple of places due to bad pipe sleeves or olives. I've got a full set of replacements on the way and will methodically work my way from tank to CAV pump to seal everything up the way it should be.
But one thing I find troubling is that I haven't been able to get any fuel hardly out of the top bleed screw on the CAV pump. I can even get it running briefly with no fuel squirting out of it. The bottom screw on the pump shoots a stream several feet out so I know it's getting fuel, but it only runs for maybe 90 seconds tops. Is this indicative of a pump problem or possibly due to air leakage in the system, it won't prime?
I'll report back after I've re sealed the fuel lines with new olives and bled it.
Thanks,
Jeff
