 Re: Not starting - Petrol supply
Ok just spent another hour trying to start it. Did and checked all that was said above. Even fitted new line from bottom of chassis to carb with new filter. Still nothing coming through. Guessing its the pump then.

 Re: Not starting - Petrol supply
If you disconnect the fuelpipe at the bottom of the chassis, does fuel come out then?

 Re: Not starting - Petrol supply
 and yes I did that (without the poping or card) and nothing happens. Also checked the line and disconnected from chassis and yes it was fine. Gonna order a pump later.

 Re: Not starting - Petrol supply
You disconnected the pipe at the chassis under the front wing and no fuel comes out? But it does if you suck?

No it came out as soon as I diconnected it, quite alot but just turned into a drip quickly. Assumed this was normal?

 Re: Not starting - Petrol supply
It needs to run out, no dripping. As long as you keep the end of the fuel line lower than the tank.

 Re: Not starting - Petrol supply
maybe the gauze (is there one) on the pipe that goes into the tank is blocked
