hi Michale! i didn't see you mention that you were working around a Veg Oil conversion in your first post, but i'd think a reputable Veg Oil conversion supplier would be willing and able to provide you with the information for the entire circuit; have you contacted them? whose Veg

Does this page help? Are you sure you didn't switch the feed and return hoses from the tank? If the fuel level is below the tank's return and hoses are switched you can't get fuel out of the tank. If the manual primer on the lift pump doesn't move fuel, I'd start there The feed from the tank

Thanks Max, I was able to get fuel through the see thru filter and the engine started. When I add the main filter to the route I do not get fuel. This may be a problem because of the way the veg oil circuit was plumbed. I have taken veg oil components out of the circuit until i determine the

There are only two hoses: feed and return. Try reversing the cigar hose and the infeed line (that has the filter on it). If your fuel is lower than 1/3 and you got those backwards, you'll get no fuel. The other lines should all be fixed-length clear hoses with banjo fittings on the ends...
