So....pump was rebuilt, getting gas!!
Except gas stopped at 3way...then leaked a little at connection to gas tank....bypassed the 3way to see if pump was working and it is.

It didn't start...now no spark. Did the testing from great write up...seems new coil/spark plug wire is bad.
Do these things fail that often? Is there a more reliable option than the NGK?

Bought new tires, had to cut one of the rear tires off...literally. Rim was in rough shape and going to primer/zinc spray them before paint.

These things are frustrating...

Try unscrewing the spark plug boot from the wire and cut about .25 to .5 inch off and screw the cap back on the wire. See if that helps spark issue.

I really have concerns that the grounding connections may be causing you issues.

I'm not sure I understand the fuel issue. Are you saying the tee is bad?

There should be no leak and the fuel pressure should be low as the excess fuel simple flows back to the tank. Since you have a Kwakiutl could a clog be causing pressure to increase? I beleive you have ne fuel hoses so there should be no clog. Do you see fuel returning to the fuel tank, just under the fill cap?

Not real sure what's going on. At first I saw fuel going to carb, then it stopped. Leak started what appeared to be at tee after cranking it and no start. Yes, all hoses are new. When I first cranked it to start, I saw fuel getting into line for carb....cranked it again and looked as if fuel stopped flowing to carb....then leak started at tee. Maybe hard line to tank is clogged after I restored it? I'll check that as well.

That's right --- float bowl filled with fuel -- floats go up and close valve -- excess fuel runs through return line to tank.
Leak could be a broken fuel "T". Did you get rammy with it and break it ?? The original "T" are now old and very brittle, especially the ones that were out in the sun. Even a new one is fragile.

To get this far and then give up would be a sin.

Intake tubing - check the search, but I believe some have had good luck using shop vac hose

Lights will only come on when Engine is running (no battery)

Roll cage foam - check summit or any racing shop


Good luck

I say if your heart is not in it, then sell it. These are old school machines, not everyone enjoys working on them. Buy a razor and put some monster stickers on it.

I appreciate the old school. Monster stickers???...that's just offensive...:)....I'll finish it.

That's one you will not forget. Sometimes they are a pain in the arse to work on, but I bet you feel better knowing it is fixed and you figured it out. Glad to hear she is firing!
