I spent too much time on one this morning. Just would not take the fuel. Funny thing is you could see it coming in the main nozzle and then just stop.
It is basically an 076 conversion. I had worked on one before that came from cutting steel at the world trade center post 9-11 . That one just had a piece of channel attached.
This one is different. So, I rebuilt the carb, replaced the top fuel line, impulse line. Pressure tested the bottom in tank hose. Same thing.
Well, as a last resort I looked at the IPL. What they did on this creation is convert the front oil tank to a separate fuel tank with it's own line and filter.
I have decided that it is pulling air in that front fuel line.
Question is , how do you get in there. The front what would be oil cap appears to be a glued in plug.
The second fuel line going from the top of the rear tank has a sheath around it and then disappears above where the impulse nipple comes out and enters the repurposed front tank.
So, how do you get in there? Or, is there a tech bulletin on replacing that front oil fill hole plug ?
Beats me. I suppose I could just block that whole mess that goes to the front.
I don't even understand how the fuel gets up there.
Bare with me . I am not particularly Bright.
