Replaced fuel pump, still no fuel
Help. I have a 1983 T25 , 1.9 petrol with a mechanical pump. I've just replaced it but still no fuel is getting through. I've sucked it through the feed pipe so there is definitely no blockage. Any ideas?

Re: Replaced fuel pump, still no fuel
did you replace the needle as well as the pump?

Yes, if by that you mean the metal rod.

How about the cone filter in the carb inlet?

Will that stop fuel getting through the pump?

Only at large throttle openings. I fitted an electric pump - has more 'oomph' than a mech one and about same price. Has to be a low-pressure one though.
How old is your fuel line?

They're fairly new. Is an electric pump easy to fit? I don't want to spend a fortune. Nothing is coming through my new pump.
