FUEL PUMP
The fuel pump supplied with the engine is a pulse type pump. It uses
crankcase vacuum pulses drawn from the valve cover to pump the
fuel. It is capable of priming at 12" (30.5 cm) maximum lift, and has
a maximum outlet pressure of 1.5 psi. If the fuel pump is not working
properly, check the vent hole on the top of the pump for obstructions.
If a fuel pump other than the factory recommended pump is used, the
fuel line pressure at the carburetor inlet must not exceed 3 psi. Pres-
sures in excess of 3 psi may cause an over rich carburetor mixture
that would lead to engine damage.
