Good Day everyone;
after isolating that it is not a pump issue, or a fuel supply line, I removed pump and watched actuator stem, that should drive the rocker in the mechanical pump housing. While cranking the engine, the stem lever is not moving. Looks disengaged.
The actuator stem (or lever) is the the one that drives the rocker, that creates the pumping action of the diaphragm.
I know the drive is the same that drives the distributor (distributor rotor is turning when engine is cranked).
How to get to the cause (a disengagement?) and how to fix it. How is this linkage accessible and what are potential failures and respective fixes.
Thanks in advance for any assistance you may be able to provide.
Regards.
