OK, so I have the common issue of the fuel draining out of the carb bowl/fuel line meaning after the car sits for a few days I need to crank for ages before the car will fire.
I was thinking of fitting one of those cheap inline electric fuel pumps only to prime the fuel line before cranking. I wasn't intending to run this electric pump after the car starts as the mechanical one does the job quite well.
Question is, if the electric fuel pump is not running will it still let the fuel through it so that the mechanical pump still does its job.
Any feedback or advice on this idea or any other potential fix for this problem would be greatly appreciated.
