Default Mechanical fuel pump

Mechanical pump is not pumping fuel. It is basically new. I also have electric airtex 6 volt pump that was used only when vehicle not used for awhile.


It all worked fine on original engine. Swapped eng to a 59A with an Edlebrock intake. Had put the push rod for aluminum intake in and rotated engine to verify that the rod moved up and down.


Well the pump is not putting out. The electric pump works but would like to have mech pump working.

What should I check for? And how?

What should the stroke of the pushrod be? ...
