wardy is your dizzy turning when you turn the engine over?????
also what is the end of the pump looking like????
a old trick of the trade was to refit the pump with a very thing gasket this will bring the pump closer to the cam gear that drives it!
...............all my secrets comeing out :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yes mate the dizzy is turning why would that make a differnce? By the end of the pump do you mean the top of it? If so it as a in and a out pipe.

Can these be fixed?

He means the bit that runs the pump off the cam, if it is worn then you can try as he says a thinner gasket.
