I picked up an MEP-803A that was last used 4 years ago but supposedly ran strong. The ex-wife that sold it knew nothing about it but it's in good shape. Checked the fluids, (will change them as soon as I can confirm it runs) and threw some new batteries in it. when I rotate S-1 I hear the pump prime at aux fuel, but not in prime & run, and then it clicks but won't crank at start. It turns over at dead crank switch no problem so It's not the starter. I jumped terminal 3 & 7 on S-1 and it just clicks. I manually moved what I believe was the float inside the tank and it still wouldn't prime or start (Did hear a clicking noise when I moved it up. Does the dead crank bypass the starter solenoid? Also, behind the control box assembly I found the clicking was coming from a relay, but I swapped it with another and had no change. It appears as though two relays are missing.
