    Love these videos, they're fantastic. Please do an oil system topic. I'll use this when my project gets underway.
    Is there a recognised datum point/measurement when observing the pushrod through the pump mounting aperture (between the studs) with regards measuring the correct rod length/height once raised on the cam?
    Great work my friend. 🇬🇧

    • @MrDanielSoliz

      I’ll measure it and do an update video or add it to the description.

    As a poor boy, when my fuel pump quit (8BA), I took a short piece of copper wire and curled it up in the PR cup. that gave me extra length of the pushrod and it started pumping gas again..

  • @jasongannon7676
    @jasongannon7676 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The cup that goes over the push rod shattered on my pump. I suspect do to a bent rod or a bad pushing. Checking for a good fit like you are doing is very prudent.

    Sorry I'm just learning about fuel pump rods, but when did cars get more than one fuel pump?

    • @MrDanielSoliz
      @MrDanielSoliz  ปีที่แล้ว

      Cars only have one fuel pump push rod.

  • @ProjectRescues
    @ProjectRescues 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    So on my car, which is a 36 ford with original 21 stud engine, there is no fuel pump, and just a block off plate in its place, I ran my car the other day for the first time since I got it running again, and gave it the beans some, then i started hearing a ting ting ting ting sound coming from the engine, turns out it was the fuel pump push rod hitting something. I guess when they took the fuel pump off and put on the block off plate and added the electronic fuel pump, they didn't take the rod out. I guess I outta take the rod out? I heard that I could lose oil pressure if I took the rod out completely and don't wanna do that. So, I would likely need to get a fuel pump.

    • @MrDanielSoliz
      @MrDanielSoliz  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      There's no oil pressure on the early one's (thin bronze bushing), the later one's(larger steel bushing) do have a small oil hole to oil the push rod.

    1949 8ba im running an eletric fuel pump do i need to do anything in there. I have a breather over the hole.

    • @MrDanielSoliz
      @MrDanielSoliz  ปีที่แล้ว

      The last 8ba had a small hole in the bushings. Take a small wire and feel inside the bushing and feel for a small hole in the center of it. Only those need a plus or sleeve. If it doesn’t have a small hole in the bushing your ok, doesn’t need anything.

    • @matthewkepley5631
