How much pressure should it take to seat the pump into the basket? Feels like the pump is too large to seat in the hole. I see people talking about webbing or whatever that might need to be removed, the only thing is there are 3 'nipples' in that hole but I can not cut them out and get a smooth surface and I do not think those should be removed.

I did not try it without the o-ring since that needs to be on there. The other walbro pump I used just slipped right in.

Any comments or suggestions?

 

How far is it from seating? I've been through it a few times and I only had one that seated right, The others were maybe 1/16" pr 1/32" apart. I just put them in a clamp with the glue and let them dry and haven't had any issues.

 

I have not put the 'top' on to see if it is sitting low enough in the bucket, I thought it would seat in the hole and 'hold itself' upright to an extent and put the top on.
My other pump sits in the hole without issue.

 

just mount it to the bracket with a hose clamp

 

do you have the offset pump or the centerd.

 

It's all fixed and ran last TH night with a consistant 90MPH and 7.5s, got some more tuning and need a set of tires.
