<META content="Microsoft SafeHTML" name=Generator><FONT face=Helvetica>Alyn-<BR><BR>Sounds to me like your pump is sucking air somewhere along the line. It could be between the tank and the pump or between the pump and the carb. I’d check all your fittings to make sure they are tight. Check the big banjo fitting at the carb. Make sure there are no leaks at the sediment bowl. That gasket leaks at times...at least it did for me. Give those things a shot. Should solve the problem. I find that mine clicks once every 3-5 seconds depending on the accelerator position.<BR><BR>Matt<BR><BR>______________________________ <BR>Matthew J.

<BLOCKQUOTE><FONT color=#0000ff><FONT size=2><FONT face=Arial>Hi All<BR>The fuel pump on my 86 clicks at a far greater rate than I think it should. In fact it seems to be continually clicking, about every three to four seconds. Is this within accepted values? It's like a machine gun when the ignition is first turned on and the carb is being primed - at least that's what I assume is going on. Am I being unnecessarily concerned here?<BR></FONT></FONT></FONT><FONT face=Helvetica><BR></FONT><FONT color=#0000ff><FONT size=2><FONT face=Arial>Regards<BR></FONT></FONT></FONT><FONT face=Helvetica><BR></FONT><FONT color=#0000ff><FONT size=2><FONT face=Arial>Alyn 1955 Station Wagon - new MOT<BR></FONT></FONT></FONT><FONT face=Helvetica><BR></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE><FONT face=Helvetica><BR></FONT><BR></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></div><br clear=all><hr>Die neue MSN Suche Toolbar mit Windows-Desktopsuche.
