Why do you think you need new metering pumps? Have you tried soaking them in carb cleaner for a few days?
Do they have to be disconnected to testTest the Burden Resisters before replacing the board. Less work,
I have been working the s8 and using deoxit going to work that some more. I do have a good working board with the burden resistors that I was thinking of putting on it. But first I will work the heck out of the s8. Might have to put this one on the back burner for a while if that doesn't work. I have a couple of others with simple fixes fuel leaks and just checking all wires are tight. And again thanks for all the help starting to understand the electrical side a little better.
@Guyfang is right. Completely Disassemble the metering pump, and see where it is sticky. Break out the carb cleaner and a rag and de-funk the funk on there and reassemble. I have used a combination of Seafoam, WD-40, Carb Cleaner, Acetone, and pretty much whatever else I have laying around at the time. I am also a firm believer in using an ultrasonic cleaner, if you have one.One was not pumping fuel took both out and let them soak for a few days one moved fine the other would not
