Lol.. The only people that cuss more than a carpenter/framer>> is their wives.. Lol
I sure hope you get this figured out.. Do you have any links as to the pump you bought?
Not all pumps are equal.. some put out more pressure than others.. & that's not always a good thing, depending on the pump model..
YOUR PUMP only requires 1-3psi at the pump inlet.. you would be ok w/ say, 10.. but anything over that & your asking for trouble..
Its strange.. the LOWER you go on the psi scale, the more expensive the electric lift pumps are.
You might say to yourself, 1-3psi aint sh*t.. Well, your right.. BUT its the VOLUME of fuel at the inlet..
The lift pump is supplying the VOLUME of fuel.. & when its weak or not working, the inj. pump cant PULL the fuel it needs, all the way from the tank, thru all those filters.. especially if they're dirty or clogged.. {get it?}
That's why you see a lot of threads about> it runs good at IDLE but when I put a load on it or move the throttle, it dies..
It takes VERY LITTLE fuel to IDLE a motor.. it takes ALOT of fuel to RUN one..
On YOUR machine, it only takes 8-11cc's of fuel to idle.. it takes 65cc's to run it at full load..
