    Unhappy Fuel pump help

    The pushrod in my fuel pump is not straight up. It's leaning over to the side so how do I get it straight up again? It's a generator type 4 1/4"..

    Sounds like the plastic push rod guide is worn out or broken.

    Unhappy Fuel pump help

    I can't put the plastic guide on because the pushrod is canted over. The pushrod will not stand up straight to put the plastic guide on.

    Any type 1 I have ever seen the push rod is held in by the plastic guide.
    As in ..... the guide goes in first, then the rod, then the pump. Not counting gaskets.
    If you are trying to get the rod in first I suppose you are just lucky that it has not fallen through into the cam gear galley. Not much fun splitting a case just to fetch out a dropped part.

    You do have a type 1?
    Picture up so we can help you better.

    If the plastic guide and block are not broke, then I would have to believe that the fuel pump push rod is bent.

    It would really help if you could take some pictures of the push rod laying flat on a surface and pictures of the guide block.

    So I am just wondering why use a manual pump?
    I just put a block off plate on mine and I use a electric pump.

    Is there some advantage of a manual pump I am not seeing?
    Thank you
