The E just means electric choke right?

I like manual just fine.

 

Cheap is too expensive. :rofl:

 

I'm back to homeless, jobless, and semi carless. Been spending what's left of my money trying to make money :frantics:

I got a place to sleep for now so all is well. Once I get highway ready I'm supposed to be going to FL to help my family with some things.

So tired of 3 steps forward 2 steps back.

 

I'm about to let some stuff go REALLY cheap so I can buy things I need like a weber and some gear oil.

well if float bowl is empty fix that first.

If and when the float bowl is full then hit the pump and see if it squirts or just drips out. Then I woudl say that is bad also.

 

Maybe time to sell the datsun if things that bad.

Broke(NO MONEY) and a car thaT NEEDS ALOT OF WORK IS NOT A GOOD THING

Hai guise I think I found problem.

 

Line behind Fuel Filter-

 

I don't know how I missed this before :rofl:

 

The conditions a datto will run in... Amazing!

[Dat Lurka]

That helped a ton.

Still losing fuel at high rpm. I think the pump is bad.

 

BTW I found this on rockauto. This is the pump that's by my tank.

I'm gonna see if it works

I wouldn't even bother......most after market pumps are garbage compared to OE

 

Go to the local wrecker and find an electric pump out of a 720 or...?....low miles if possible.

Unscrew the base of pump...make sure it's clean

 

20+ bucks????......probably get 200K miles out of it

Also......sometimes electric pumps are just replaced because the ground/connection is MIA and or the filter in the bottom of the pump is plugged. Some owners have no clue.....

 

Maybe it's still good.......bench test it.

[Dat Lurka]

I hooked cleaned the connection and plugged it in. It was pumping, but not pumping. Took the bottom cap off (in pieces) and it was TRASHED inside.

Put the magnet on my fridge and threw the pump in scrap pile :rofl:

 

Just gonna have to beg for cash till I can get a pump <_<

 

Life is hard, yo.

 

 

why did my truck have an electric pump in 77'? Is it because it had A/C ?

[datzenmike]

That is the '79 type used with air also on all 720. It would be on the outside of the frame just forward of the pass side rear wheel. Yours is a '77 so someone put it on.

The tank was missing on my 79 parts car so it was prob pulled from there.

It sure looked factory.

So what do you think Mike? Did my pump go bad?

[ggzilla]

Have you replaced the filter that is inside the pump? I had one of those on my truck but the new engine has a mechanical pump.

[Dat Lurka]

It's a mechanical pump.
