I took the original fuel pump and filter combo off my 1970 351 H/M and cleaned it out....it had been sitting for 10 years....pump diaphragm looked good....
I reinstalled it and can't get it to prime. I took it off again and again to see if I had the arm positioned correctly?.....it mounts with some tension.
With the pump in my hand I can get it to squirt fuel by moving the arm. I used a hand pump to get some fuel moving....
Anyway....after much cranking....still nothing. Can these pumps be a "bear" to prime?....
Thanks!
