If you have the correct fuel pumps, there are caps you can remove off the bottom with a twist, and there should be 'basket' strainer filters inside of each pump that can get gummed up and restrict flow. Thats what I meant, for clarification.
I wouldn't splice those lines. I would determine the length, gauge, and termination size, and have new ones made up complete (or sourced used from a parts machine if thats preference). Not the spot I would personally want a 'fix' to fail.
Clicking does not equal pumping. It should... but it doesn't always. Have you removed the particle filters and caps and cleaned them?
According to Pegasus racing, that pump has "Maximum fuel delivery 33 gallons per hour at free flow", so assume about a half gallon per minute max flow. Sounds...
The Airtex pump is better than the square Facet by far... but I have still experienced enough failures in it that I expect issues going forward with all of them. I would remove the hard line to the fuel filter, and have a clear line go back to an external tank and watch to see if it experiences...
That bracket has been bent up, which is the most likely cause of the flap going missing. The two tangs on the cover side, should be pretty much level with the mounting flange with the (2) hex screws.
Getting warmer... I think you are going to end up pulling the cover over the gauges and cleaning the AC contactor box, which resides behind the wall with the S8 switch. That box, when voltage is applied, is what transfers power down to the lugs. Its known to get hung up by corrosion.
The PRC gauge should be registering zero if power is not leaving the machine. Your machine IS generating power though, so breathe easy there. The trick is to now get it out of the machine.
When you engage the circuit interrupt switch on the gauge panel, does the green bulb light up?
What setting do you have the voltage/phase selection switch set to behind the gauge panel? And does your hertz gauge register? How about the voltage gauge... showing any voltage? Where is your AM/VM switch set on the gauge panel?
The convenience outlet has a resettable breaker on it as well...
I think its very good info, but I think there are already too many 'stuck' threads at the top. Perhaps a bit of pruning and grouping would be more beneficial based on the type of info (electrical, fuel, parts and acessorries, etc).
