Re: Having fuel delivery issues

i had too "bleed" the fuel line on the kids truck.

disconnect the infeed line at the pump and direct it into a bucket.
then use a air gun/nozzle and your hand too seal it and blow air into the gas tank "slowly". fuel should start flowing out of the line at the pump.


is pretty crazy but this also works in reverse. blow the air into the disconnected fuel line at the pump. just be ready cause the gas will come out as soon as you let off the trigger.

either way reconnect at the fuel pump and give the engine a few cranks too see if your getting fuel through the carb yet but.....

after doing all this it still may be nessacary too disconnect the fuel line at the carb and crank the engine till gas comes out that line also. "although i never had too do this part."
