[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 1439, member: 82"] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] I wouldn't worry too much about the missing screen on the suction pipe, as you will have a filter a little further down the line. Don't get me wrong, the more filtration you have the better but the pickup one isn't essential, but i would replace the hose if it has gone hard. Injector pumps, this really depends on so very many variables. The major causes of injector pump failure would be water, crappy fuel and dirt/impurities in the fuel. If you use a bad fuel it doesn't have the lubrication that good fuel has, this is why you can't use kerosene as it is abrasive. Really, a well maintained engine/pump should last well into ten thousand hours, but this depends on many factors. With the problems you describe i would seriously doubt injector pump problems, if it doesn't blow smoke or hard to start i honestly would forget about pump problems. I would suspect an air leak or lift pump. Let me know how you go[/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
