Fuel punp.
Posted: Mon Jul 05, 2010 6:23 pm
I overhauled my elecric fuel pump recently.
Now there is a fast clicking coming from it which I presume is the points opening and closing quickly.
It doesn't do it all the time and it rarely did it before the pump packed in.
My question is, do I need to adjust the diaphragm? If so, do I screw it more or unwind it? I initially followed the instructions with the overhaul kit. These were to screw it in all the way and then unscrew it until the points would tip over, then unscrew it four further holes plus enough to line up the holes.
