: Thanks for your prompt service re: the re-build kit.  Especially for sending
: along the large "O" ring, as the old one had been assembled " pinched"
: originally and couldn't be re-used.

: The pump is up and running and leak-less now, a great improvement.  I pump
: diesel fuel with it.  BUT (always something, aye?) the pump labors badly
: unless the nozzle is on; I suspect the bypass isn't working at all.  This
: old pump has a flat valve plate instead of a pointed stem assembly.  The
: plate appears to be ceramic, or plastic.  I can't figure out how it works,
: or how to "clear" any blockage, such as rust.  The various parts seem loose
: enough and free-working.

: If I leave the pump on without passing fuel, the motor labors increasingly,
: the motor slowing continuously and I think it will either fail or throw the
: breaker eventually.

: Any ideas would be appreciated.

: Thanks again for your prompt service!
