FUEL
PUMP

TESTING

A
fuel

pump
is

operating
properly
when
its

pressure
is

within

specifications
and
its

capacity
is

equal
to
the

engine
5

requirements
at
all

speeds
Pressure
and

cap
lcity
must
be

determined

by
two
tests

with

the

pump
mounted
on
the

engine
Be

sure
that

there

is

gasoline
in
the

tank
when

conducting
these

tests

test

The

static

pressure
test
is

conducted
as
follows

Disconnect
the
carburetor
fuel
line
at

the
carburetor

2
Install
the

necessary
adapter
and
tee

fitting
to
the

fuel
line

and
attach
a

suitable

pressure
gauge

Start
and
run

engine
at

varying
speeds

The

reading
on
the

gauge
is

This
condition

requires
removal

of
the

as

sembly
for

replacement
or

repair

Capacity
test

The

capacity
test

is
used

only
when
the
static

is
within

specifications
The

capacity
test
is
conducted
as

follows

1
Disconnect
