but couldnt get it started there was no fuel getting to the pump so I checked the fuel lines an couldnt find any more cracks so I tryed priming the carb still on joy then I tryed sucking on the pipe (I know bad idea but was getting desperate)an there was no resistance an no fuel but there was a hissing noise coming from a rubber grommet that the fuel line ran through the bulkhead ? after pulling the pipe out a little I spotted a big hole

Now the van ran fine till I drained the fuel system to replace the pipes but im guessing it couldnt make the vacuume to pull the fuel up ,anyway I've now changed all the rubber pipes to be on the safe side
