Well, actually messed with it a bit today. the fuel pump seems to work like it should, about two seconds, then stops. Would not start, checked spark, had spark. Pulled plug and it was wet, took hose off pressure reg. if that is the one that is in front of engine,left side and has hose that splits off and goes to each side of intake about half way back. It was wet with fuel, hit starter and it pumped gas out of open tube (with two plugs out, it tried to start). It has a fuel line that comes off the rail in the front and connects to it, took that off and plugged it, put everything back together and if fired up. It ran rough from being flooded, then smoothed out, ran for 40 sec., then died like I hit it in the head with a hammer. Has not started since... of course I only worked about another 5 min on it...Oh plug was wet again. I will deal with it another day, read more of all of your input, use what I learn from you all, and attack from another angle.
Thank You..........Bob
