    If you had a good ground the pump should run when connected and in prime\run. Unless you have the wrong pump lead connected

    How did you ground the pumps? The solenoid connection might have been providing a ground path

    Might be worth checking feed through. the pumps were designed to allow 1 to fail and still deliver fuel. There is a similar model that doesnt allow this and a bad pump will stall the engine.

    I found these specs on line for the fuel pump. Maximum fuel delivery 33 gallons per hour at free flow. Maximum pressure 6 to 8 psi. Typical flow 15 gph @ 2 psi. 1/4 NPT male fittings. Features a built-in EMI filter to minimize radio interference. This pump includes an internal 74 micron...

    I would test for flow as well. Pressure is just part of the equation.

    Converting a 005A with a Digital Controller

    KISS UCIRRC Keep It Simple Stupid. Unless Complex Is Really Really Cool. Me personally, I added a servo to a 004, I use a PLC to read frequency and adjust as needed. In my defense I was left unsupervised

    Converting a 005A with a Digital Controller

    Ah, I thought with the MPU you would have installed a servo to regulate the speed. I did this with my 004, but due to a recent fire i have to do some repair work and was considering a control overhaul

    Never worked on this specific model, but I have had floats get stuck and also leak to the point where they don't float correctly.

    The -12 manual is your friend here, it has the operating info. quick and dirty there are 3 fuel pumps 2 are in series and supply fuel from tank through the separator and filters to the injection pump. the 3rd is active only in prime run and aux fuel, it sucks fuel from a fitting by the...

    That's a float switch for the aux fuel. If you aren't hooking the set to an external tank you don't need it
