    Lift pump ?

    Lift pump ain’t working. It has a new eBay kit. How much pressure should I get on the tube going to pump? It blows air while cranking but I can easily stop it with my finger. Compression is 110-120.

    make sure the gasket isnt squeezed over that hole. happens if you over-tighten, hold the diaphram up to a light source, 2-3 lbs out pressure.
