Hi Everyone,
I recently installed a 1HD-FTE in my FZJ100 and I noticed that I lose fuel prime within minutes of the motor turning off. Funny enough, it needs the same number of hand pumps no matter how long it sits, 5 minutes or 12 hours, everytime it's around 5-6 pumps until the primer stiffens up.
Here are the new parts that I bought, honestly I'm completely stumped.
New OEM Primer w/ new heater and water trap
New 12mm OEM Hoses (yes I'm that kind of crazy)
New 12mm Main Fuel Line
New main and sub tank fuel pickups
New sub tank solenoids
New return fuel damper
The only thing that isn't new is the return fuel line which I had to make myself... I'm wondering if that has some air leaks.
Does anyone know if air getting into the return fuel line can cause loss of prime? I'm completely confused with all these new parts, I'm totally baffled. Any recommendations to diagnose this would be amazing.
