Why the flow test first ?    ----that is to prevent a situation -----where you have a fuel
supply problem   screwing up the TUNING   stuff to follow.

There is a GREAT   amerikan song ---saying NEW YORK ---new York  --if you can make there ?
you can make it anywhere.----Here is Svends version   .:     if you can start a Rabbit in
James Hansen land --?   you can start it anywhere. (Amen)

All you have to do is  put the return line in a bottle  ---then measure the flow by using
a clock ----I used the clock on the dash.       This is really not newbie stuffing ----BUT
if you run in to PO problems ----make sure it say  " OUT "   on outlet banjo bolt.

The flow though the orifice  is a direct indication of Pump pressure.. The orifice is to
be found in " OUT " banjo bolt .----it is protected by a sintered bronze filter.    If you
post the flow here ?  we can help you ,what to do next.

If flow is low ?   do not panic . There are a lot more things to do ----before sending the
pump ---to BOSCH.

Got it ?  if you have flow number ---then we can help.


Svend.

PS :    orifice ?   that is a very small hole.---it is calibrated --so DO NOT
HANGE  ----that is for experts----some day you may.
