The relief valve is on the side of the IP nearest the block, and the ball in there moves as it should.


The banjo's on the filter housing are different size, and can't be transposed.



I get good fuel flow from the outlet of the filter housing, and the inlet to the IP pump. Just very little seems to pass through the pump, when cracking the banjo with the relief valve on it.
