Tom, The lift pump arm usually rides on a lobe on the camshaft, which above the
crankshaft, which is well above the oil level. A mechanical lift pump is fairly
easy to change. If you want feel free to call me and I can walk you through the
process. Doug Mountjoysv Rebecca Leah C&C Landfall 39Port Orchard yacht

Fuel Lift Pump So, if I understand recent responses to my recent post on
running out of fuel at less than an empty tank, the theory is that with a weak
fuel lift pump at a certain fuel level in the tank, the pump would stop lifting
fuel, thereby causing the engine to run out of fuel.So, guess I’ll take a shot
at replacing it and seeing if that solves the problem.Anyone replace the fuel
lift pump on a Yanmar 3HM35F? I am wondering if the arm that rides the cam is
above the at recast engine oil level.thxTom BuscagliaS/V Alera 1990 C&C
