Fuel Pump followup question
I started to disconnect the fuel outlet and fuel dribbled out. Does that suggest that the pump is working or would engine vacuum as it's cranking over be enough to get the fuel through the new filter and through the new pump.
Background: My old pump was working but I had a strong fuel smell in the oil and the oil would thin.
Thank you all again for your feedback

Re: Fuel Pump followup question
The fuel pump would not cause the oil prob unless it was pumping over 9 psi.The fuel dilution in the oil would be from a rich carb.
