3—But for the 5mm fuel line (which I can acquire) I have everything
necessary to put on a pair of rebuilt Solexes. I figure if I can’t get the FI to
run nicely by Friday, I can spend the weekend installing the carbs and
getting used to them. Yes, I know carbs present their own issues from vac leaks
to sticking chokes to clogged jets and whatnot else, but maybe I can at
least get to Madison on them and then get a good look at the FI by
dismantling as little of it as possible.
So if I try option 1 and there’s no change, is option 2 viable?
Any reason not to try option 3? Heck, it might even get me all the way out
to Oregon!!
I wouldn't think twice about this option, and it probably would get you to
Oregon and back without any issues. I'd look into a low pressure electric
pump, like a Mr.Gasket 42S pump, as they work good with both Solex carbs, as
well as Weber car carbs (ICTs). I only mention it, as the rebuilds and
todays mechanical pumps leave something to be desired, and can quit without
warning.
