I had a tiny piece of a valve stem seal lock up an oil pump on a Dodge 318 once. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peter lena 9,252 #31 Posted 7 hours ago (edited) @kpinnc also have my electric pumps up front with no issues , often refer to fuel hose , breakdown / debris issues , when ever I encounter a CHRONIC / REPEDITIVE PROBLEM , i make a change ? you know what does not work . since going over to STABIL , fuel storage additive , and new hoses throughout , my filters are always clean, clear , that alone was worth the experiment ! always top of my tanks with an ounce or two , of stabil . fuel bowls are clean / clear , instant starts , also have fuel hose vertical check valves before the carb , so you can see fuel held to carb , regularly keep in touch with everything , and touch up accordingly . if your fuel hoses are breaking down , you have to replace ALL OF THEM , and try something different . realise this is a bone of contention , clean / clear fuel filters , pete Edited 6 hours ago by peter lena 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
