Hi Fellas,
Help again please ?? !!
I'm fitting a kit to a red motor fuel pump (kit from Repco). It is the pump with the glass bowl.
How do I get out the inlet and outlet valves? The instructions just say 'Remove valves from housing'. I tried levering one out with a screw driver, but it didn't want to move. Do I just use more force?
To fit the new valves, the instructions say 'De-bur valve bores and fit new valve gaskets. Where nexcessary, stake valves in a minimum of three positions evenly spaced around each valve'. What does 'stake' mean?
