Back at it again

Finally decided to stop playing around and get out of the Napco Ford medium duties. I picked up a 1970 m35a2 with a cobbled together fuel system. When I picked it up it had a 5 gallon tank tied to the troop seats feeding the main tank with an autozone fuel pump and filters in unknown condition. This tank would work but overflow the primary tank the whole time if was running. I replaced the pump and filters getting it to run as it should. But as luck would have it when I came home with a set of a3 wheels and tires she idled for about 5 minutes and died. The fuel pump is still humming away but im getting no fuel at the bleeder valve. Tomorrow I'll inspect the primary filter housing and try to unravel the mystery of the mission fuel pressure.

Solved it, the new fuel pump I have is humming like its working however the impeller isn't spinning internally. Taking the old lift pump apart it appears that it spins the impeller through magnetic induction but no hard connection.

I bet you will be able to repair that rate item. Hope it is just trash in the impeller.

I called up secoparts.net who I bought the part from and they are sending a new one. I've already inspected the screen and I can't find any evidence of debris but because of the safety style screws on the new pump I am unable to take it apart and swap impellers.
I am going to go ahead and use this opportunity to give seco-parts a shout out they have phenomenal customer service and support, also their style of packaging parts is top notch.
