I opened up my facet fuel pump today, and discovered that the black *washer* around what I take to be the intake valve (see pic) was soft and gummy and I could pick bits off with my fingernail. Since this is downstream of the last filter it may explain my recent carb problems ! What is this washer for, and how can I get a replacement - if I need it?
There is an odd clip around this assemble, again: what is it for?
The big washer in the 'base' was hard and cracking around its inside edge - I found a service kit online with one and a filter, I'm surprised Moyer dopes not carry fuel pump service kits.
I noted the magnet which sits in the 'base', any idea what it does?
Lastly, I note that my pump (fitted before I got the boat) (see other pic) is marked 'automotive' and does not seem to have the part number Don recommends. Is this correct? Is it a big issue?
thanks to anyone who can shed some light on these little mysteries.
