Starting Problem

I think your right. I started with the tank removal (not fun) since most connectors and boltd are rusted. Once I'm done I'll let you know how it turns out.

Thanks

i sprayed all the bolts and connectors with a penetrant and let it soak over night,that really helped make life easier and saved a few knuckles

Good idea, I'm having a hard time disconnecting the fuel tube line connector.
I'll give the penetrating spray a try- Thanks

Okay....The Holidays are over and I finally got back to work on removing the tank. The tanks out, waiting for the pump and I'll let you know how it turns out.....

while you have the old pump out hook it to a 12v battery and see if it comes on,if not its bad,if it does then your problem is elsewhere..just do that before you go through all that trouble of replacing it and putting tank back in only to find out it still doesn't work
