How do you plan on changing the pinion seal on the 9"
JB Weld has always worked well for me. Last time you worked on my 9" you used ky though, right????Quote:

The truck is not getting fuel.
When I pull the throttle cable on the carb, it tries to squirt fuel in, but it just won't do it.
There is a small amount of fuel in the fuel filter right next to the carb, but not as much as there normally is.
What has gone wrong here? Where should I start looking? I would guess fuel pump, but I'm not sure.
is there fuel in the tank?
haha, yes there is fuel in the tank
Mechanical fuel pumps are like $20 so thats a good place to start.
Is there any way I can diagnose the problem instead of just throwing money at new parts?
Throwing new parts at it until it works again is all fine and dandy, and it is usually the Hot Pocket way of doing things, but I'm trying to learn from my mistakes here :flipoff2:
Pull the fuel line at the carb, point it at a bucket. Have someone crank engine to see if it's pumping fuel out. If no fuel pull line going to the inlet side of the pump, make sure you get fuel out of there. If no fuel keep working your way back till you find it. If there is fuel replace the pump.
You can disconnect the fuel line before the filter and blow compressed air through it to free any obstuctions but that kinda of **** usually gets caught in the filter. Its twenty ****ing dollars. I know you have "other priorities" like bongs that cost more than your bronco but replacing the pump is your best bet at this point.
The only thing I would add to BDR's is to check both sides of the clear filter to see if it will actually let any through.
If you have a hard time seeing anything under the hood, a zippo makes for a real good flashlight when checking fuel lines. Not near as explosive as the butane lighters are...
Thanks, I'll give it a shot. Where is the fuel pump on my truck? I seem to have misplaced my haynes manual.Quote:
