deuce fuel pump

[barnetc1]

My pump quit. Have been running truck without pump for couple months. Was working good till i ran out of fuel, now can not get truck to crank. Anything im not doing that would help. I have fuel to sec. Filters but just wont run.

Ether start it the first time to get everything re-primed.

are you talking about the in tank fuel pump? if so check the fuse to see if it is blown. if so just replace it. it is only about 4 bucks at radio shack. here is the link to the write up i did for it. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/73512-how-replace-tank-fuel-pump-fuse.html

If your in-tank pump is not working and you have 'soldier B' and an air compressor - then you can restore the prime! What you need to do is to make sure there is at least 10 gallons in the tank (more is better). Have soldier B put the end of the air hose in the open fuel cap, then try to plug the rest of the opening with a rag held down by a hand or other object to slightly pressurize the tank, then crank the engine. 10 seconds on the starter, then let it cool two minutes, repeat five times. If still no go, you may have made an IP problem by running out of fuel, and that's above my pay grade.

OR, use a leaf blower! (or a mother in law)

FIX THE INITIAL PROBLEM, then start your truck..........

I agree with ODdave, the in tank pump is there for a reason, if the fuse blew, it did so for a reason., my tank pump blew the fuse then quit, after removing the pump I found it was starting to use more voltage due to age/wear. I like my injection pump so I bought a new pump Assy. I'm just applying some tough love here.

Gimp, thought those where used for the cucv turbo mod?

Ahh, I don't have a CUCV, so I must not have gotten the TPS(Office Space reference) report/memo.

I agree. Fix your fuel pump. Keeping the small things working will save big trouble later.
