W9 fuel pump

[henry v11]

Did the W9 run better with the fuel pump. I disconnected mine years ago when I was using the tractor a lot and did not seem to notice any difference in power just wondered if I made a mistake

i run my w-9 without the fuel pump. no difference that i can see. steiners does now sell the rebuild kits for the later w-9 tractors.

due to it being a big engine the gravity system might not be sufficient to keep the carb bowl full under hard pulling. thats why they have a fuel pump.
