Engine gets fuel, but no pressure (K-jet) 140-160 1974

I remember it being easy to lift (rather push down) the flap on my 760 with K-Jet. But that might have been with the engine off.

It did run for a minute, so I would guess that the fuse connection got worse during that minute while current was flowing. Or perhaps the fuse corrosion was not the cause of the problem, and only corroded on the outside.

Being in storage for a while, I would guess you've got rust flakes in the tank, and now the fuel pick-up is blocked. K-Jet is very reliable, and I would not think it will die like that due to a faulty component. After all, it did run fine for a minute.

Have fun...
