This is a solicitation for tricks.
I have a 91 NA, which through sitting a while, with a nearly empty tank,
pointed slightly uphill, and with 200kmiles has lost it's prime. I had
the injector harness off for GP servicing, and now don't get flow to
bleed the lines.
I'm probably going to suspend a "transfusion bottle" from the hood, and
run the feed and return lines for the IP into that, to get things
going. But before I do that, I figured I'd tap the collective
wisdom.
Once I get it going, if it continues to loose prime, then I'll be
resealing the pump. Oh, I don't think the bearings are bad. Yet.
