Re: Low Manifold Vacuum
The port that pulls vacuum for the accelerator pump is wet https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/13256455_10154279247101812_6203228008555557781_n.jpg?oh=16dde3a82b7260e5a72facdbb4f085bc&oe=579C773C https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/13239407_10154279247701812_51067872465701565...

Re: Low Manifold Vacuum
OK the check ball spring between the pump and the jet is supposed to be tapered and I I am pretty sure I used a straight spring thus letting the check ball fall into the spring and letting vacuum pull fuel out. https://scontent-ord1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/13178534_10154271778236812_3925891400222437...

Re: Low Manifold Vacuum
Since I did the compression test I have had the plugs out of the motor. I ran the electric fuel pump while not cranking with the throttle closed and open and it did not have any fuel coming out of the pcv. Put the plugs back in it, with the fuel pump off, choke on I started cranking with my father i...

Re: Low Manifold Vacuum
OK so with the PVC valve undone, I turned the electric fuel pump on for about 90 seconds and it DID NOT leak and fuel. That makes me think the float is doing its job but when I crank I get a fuel drip.

Re: Low Manifold Vacuum
I have a nice bright blue spark there's your problem it should be red to orange :P 2lbs of vacuum @ cranking speed with a 24v starter on 24v is normal. if your cranking with the choke all the way out pulling 2lbs you will flood the manifold in seconds if the (vacuum operated) throttle pump is worki...

Re: Brush Buggy Build
Got the new valve cover gaskets, water pump, and manifold studs installed. The Gates 42554 water pump from rock auto worked fine and it was $36 compared to $60 or more from other sources http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/attachments/dodge/2238330d1461962293-my-m37-brush-buggy-build-13082633_10154234449...
