    If the system was able to be primed then I think that the lift pump might not be the cause

    It's worth reading this:

    Zook turned up.

    Hmmm, hmm, hmm.

    Lift pump.
    Took him no time at all.

    Lift pump is priming, but must have a hole in the diaphragm.

    I never even thought that the air might be getting in via the lift pump. duh.

    I didn't get it together to get one today, so first thing monday...

    Cheapest price over the internet I could find was $117.

    Cheers

    <span style="color:blue">it all seems to point to that(pump).....
    but it was doing something strange that still has me a bit sceptical....

    before you spend any cash on it......
    try starting it with a full tank to see what happens.....</span>

    Too wet, no shed, pretty sure it is the lift pump.

    I'm imagining it got a pinhole when I was driving home the first day. Then when I started fiddling about and started pumping the primer I made the hold bigger.

    There was an oil hose that ran just under the primer handle. To pump the primer I had to shift the hose out of the way. I wonder if it might have been forcing the primer handle to sit in the wrong place.

    New lift pump monday when the house of cheap lift pumps opens.


    Cheers
    Simon
