I have a fuel system question involving a QD-16 and pressure tank. I tried starting it this morning and it does not appear that I am getting fuel to the plugs. I have put new points condensers and coils along with wires and boots and new plugs. I do have spark, which jumps about a quarter inch gap on both cylinders and very good compression. But, she is not firing and when I pulled the plugs, they were bone dry. I have not done any work on the carb, but it was extremely clean and no sediment in the bowl and there were no leaks. I have installed new fuel rated lines.
I did notice when pumping up the pressure that once the pressure built up some fuel was squirting out around the aluminum knob shaft. I have never used a pressure tank before so I do not know if this is normal or not. I did install new fuel line and new springs and o-rings on the female connector and a new cork seal around the tank pump housing. When pressurizing the tank fuel did enter and fill the glass sediment bowl on the carb.
Any advice appreciated! Thanks!
