Have you got the little plastic spacer?

dunno - just get rid of it and fit an electric pump.

 

Bugger me, I have two available right here........:P

haha spot on about the spacer, bought a new fuel pump today and it came with the spacer and gaskets, i haven't had much experience with k engines and didn't realise they had one until then, all fixed now thought and thanks for the help

let me guess - ripped a nice hole in the diaphragm?

my fuel pumps kept shitting themselves,

and i found out it was because of fuel pressure building up in the tank, i had to cut a small hole in the rubber seal around my fuel cap to stop it happening, but now i get fuel spilling out on sharp right handers,

so why does this happen, does anyone elses build up pressure? and if so, does it make ther fuel pump spew fuel out the breather hole?

Unblock the breather line to the charcoal canister or get the right fuel cap.

where is this said breather line and charcoal canister?

its the cap off a ke55 so its exactly the same,

There is 3 lines.

 

Feed

Return

And one that goes to the charcoal canister up the front, don't know if Ke55's have one but most cars do.

Yes the 55 has a charcoal canister, it's connected to the bracket which holds down the battery

And the canaster has 3 lines on it, one to the carb, one from the tank, and the other goes straight down as a breather, thru a little hole on the chassis rail
