Where did you get the chanels from [?]

 

[transitvanman]

i got a big pile of bits with the van thay were well handy makes a lot of differance

 

[transitvanman]

i have a bit of a problem with the petrol running back to tank and it takes ages for it to pump up agen think my pump is on its way out ?[xx(]

 

[studiocommer]

sounds possible, they're not up to any high pressure action at the best of times - more of a steady trickle

There are some threads dotted about regarding electric pumps which might be interesting

Ive got this problem on my camper its the fuel vapourising in the carb because of the heat it gets wel hot under that little enging lid!Im goin to fit an electric pump so when you turn the ignition on the fuel is back there instantly and will start straight away

 

[transitvanman]

still need a pump and now need a down pipe it has split[xx(]

Fit an electric one like a facet and a filter king reg it wont give you any trouble then just make a plate and a gasket forthe hole in the block where the pump goes might even give her a bit more poke!!
