when i took the IP apart the other day to check the screen, some parts came out at the rear that i'd never seen before. the parts are the ones that form a cross. they are 4 separate pieces and they plunge/scrape the side of something, not sure what it is. they have to go in crazy like and i had to do it with the pump still in and backwards, this i wasn't looking forward to. but it worked out:
Transfer pump > This gives you case pressure. if you looked at the intake of the pump inside the little inlet fitting, there is a 5/32 allen wrench screw, turn it in clock wise looking at it, and it bumps case pressure and timing advance across the board. Be careful though, to much and it will blow the seals out of the shaft and pump fuel into the engine. there is also a screen in that housing that covers it.
bbbbb
this is not the same pump because i never removed it.
after working out the air, cranking, shooting WD40, it started and stayed running, purred like a big kitten. there is one small problem though, water pump. noticed it 2 days ago and i had been losing coolant but couldn't find the problem.
will need to take it for a run, at least an hour to see what happens and build up my confidence.
any water pumps to avoid?, this has the 99 spin on fan.
i remember talking about that earlier with you but can't remember what the benefit was. can you refresh my memory?
