Hello friends,
After my 82 CJ, sits for 3 or 4 weeks it takes a lot of cranking to get
the fuel to the carb and start. Is the fuel draining back to the tank
through the fuel pump? Or the return line off the filter? What about
the fuel in the float bowl, it seems gone too? If I prime it, it helps
some, but what a hassle (that's just not right!)
I wonder if an electric pump will help or will it run non-stop and
overheat due to the return line? Maybe I can wire it with a manual
switch on the dash and only run it till it gets fuel to the carb and
starts, then shut it off and let the mechanical pump take over. I'm
soooooo confused.
I guess I could just be sure to run it each week to avoid all the above
hassle?
I took my grandaughter on her first Jeep with the doors off ride. She
is nine and has just lost her daddy. She enjoyed the ice cream but the
best part was the dirt roads and hills. Now she hits me up for a Jeep
ride every day after school. Good healing and bonding tool.

Thank for any suggestions,
Bill
