Great, glad things were a simple fix and nothing was torn down causing more issues! The hard top will be gravy!

Any progress on this?

And for the helluv it, the FSOV measurements,

It could just be idling really low, that could be why it was a no start and why it shakes now, idle should be 650-750 RPM. There is a lever behind that the plate your throttle linkage bolts to. There is an acorn headed bolt that contacts a tab on that lever, this is low idle adjustment. It is...

No dings, this is just a stumper. It is sort of common, seen MW and P pumps fail quite a bit. Mostly due to h20, some from governor parts flinging thru the hsg and some just a plain old no start. He just needs to check pressures to verify/confirm pump issue.

15 to lite. 25 is good, 30 is better. The lift pump is capable of 70 psi.

There is fuel to the pump, but he has not yet verified the pressures. If the WOT won't make it fire, the pressure check is a must.

OK, here's something that I remember. When the FSOV shuts off, the rack returns to the zero delivery position, which is toward the governor portion of the pump. This puts a slot in line with another slot that shunts the fuel back into the gallery, IIRC, the rack is helped to be held at zero...

It's an MW with an RQVK governor. The reason I asked about lines off and for a pic is that what you describe can be caused by the return check valve being installed into the inlet port...yup, it happens, they are the same size fittings. Looks like yours is good. If there is zero delivery, the...

Hmm, there shouldn't be that much pressure there. Maybe 25 psi if all it does is crank. Can you take a picture of the side of the pump where the fuel enters the pump? You say it sat with no fuel in it, was the pump off or were lines removed?
