CAV i pump 240 MF

[FJGFARM]

I bought a nice 240 that had caught on fire. The aulternator, fuel pump, and primary fuel filter were melted. The fuel tank for OK and the lines were fine.
After replacing everything I have no real pressure from the injector pump. There is good fuel flow into the pump, but only a drible out the bleeder valves.
Even tho the pump looks good is there anything I can do myself? I have a pump manual, but it doesn't trouble shoot problems.
Help!!!

It may have been damaged by the heat.
You won't know until it is torn down.

Hi,

By bleeder valves, do you mean the little bleeding screws on the pump, or do you mean you only get a little drible out of the injector lines?

You will need a good stream of fuel from the bleeding screws before you can see if it is good or not.

When you pump the primer pump does fuel come out faster? Sometimes it takes a while to get all the air out. Dave

The CAV pumps can be a real pain to get the air out of. But I agree with Jeff you may need to have the pump rebuilt. The heat may have damaged the seals in the pump.
