Ian: Got a question, where is this fuel pump located? This 2444 is a British engineered IH tractor, and I'll be the first to admit I know very little about British IH tractors.
None of the US built tractors had a fuel pump until the 86 series, and that was only because the fuel tank was behind the seat. None of the Farmalls, gas or diesel, with fuel tank directly over the torque tube ever required a fuel pump. I can't see any good reason why these little 35-40 hp British tractors would reqire a fuel pump. Fuel tank is very close to same position in relation to engine as a Farmall, and they all worked fine for many years with graviety fuel flow.
I see an inline fuel filter, and that is an absolute no-no on a graviety flow fuel system. I do know these British tractors came new with with a sediment bowl, fitted with shut off and screen. that is excatly same as US built Farmall. These sediment bowls worked well for hundreds of thousands of operating hours. I know as my farm probably clocked up a 100,000 of those hours. The sediment bowl as a water trap is far more valuable than any inline filter over the sediment bowl screen.
