I had all sorts of trouble with my fuel pump, I put a full kit through it & it still would'nt suck up from the tank. The problem? The pump housing was cracked. Almost invisible... I replaced housing and away she went. I hope this helps rather than hinders...!

Yes, it wouldn't even run the 5 cylinders then available. I have some footage of Tony working on it.
