I took the screw out in the center of the pump, and the little basket-like filter came out. There wasn't much debris in it, but I cleaned it out anyway. When I put it back, I guess I didn't get it tight enough because the engine ran very poorly, cutting out several times in a short test run. I guess air was getting in the pump, since when I cranked down on the screw, the engine started up and ran normally. We have a warm spell here, so I am not confident the problem is solved, but it seems to be okay for the moment. I'm guessing that my lift pump may be failing, so I might get another one to have on hand just in case. It looks like about the easiest thing you can do on that engine. Is there anything to look out for?</p></blockquote><p></p>
