Went back to the basics: Fuel Air Spark

Started with fuel and pulled the hoses on the pumps to check the flow. The in tank was pumping but not as much as I thought it should. Swapped it out with an older one I had as a spare from a previous 240...and it pumped much better.

Put all the hoses back and took it for a test drive...and it performed perfectly! Was out doing donuts in the back pasture on it.

Thanks for all the help and suggestions. Glad to have this girl back on the road!
