Carter YF - Acc Pump?

[Bort62]

Okay, I've got it somewhat running now. One thing that I have noticed is that the YF I resurrected from ebay and rebuilt doesnt seem to have a very functional accelerator pump.

As in, it barely squirts anything at all.

Any tips? I've got the check ball in there with the weight on top, and it really just barely squirts out.

Plugged passage either in or out or linkage wrong?

Nother thing could be the inlet is not sealing with the ball. might put the ball and weight in place a tap very lightly with a small hammer to reseat.

Thanks, good suggestion.

The passage is not plugged - I just went through this thing and EVERYTHING is clear.

Is the ball check valve present?
