Re: fuel pump

can blow through pipe from pump to carb, when i take this pipe off i can feel air being pumped out. Tick on pump is very noisy though. Car definitely had fuel last time i drove it so can't be that - i hope!

The books appear to have a wing nut the mesh end but mine does not, meaning I am unable to get into the main housing and clean it as well as the oil sludge...
