Sounds like you may have installed the pump a tooth or two off.
If so, your timing may be so advanced or retarded that the available range of adjustment won’t make a difference.

It doesn't matter which direction I rotate the pump, it still just pours fuel. Now after the initial pouring of fuel subsides, it drips constantly with no pressure from the primer pump. Push the primer once and it sprays fuel.


What am I doing wrong??
