Default Re: Dead fuel pump.?

Fixed, pump was fine. My guess is this, all the fuel drained out of the Holley bowls and the majority of the f/p itself. When the engine stopped, did the f/p pump shaft off the cam leave the pump in an open position.? I don't know if that is even possible. I dumped some fuel into the carb, fired the motor, and that evidently created enough vacumm to get the whole system functioning normally again, no problems since, very funky, never had that happen before. Thx for the tips. SULLY
