FUEL PUMPS
If you suspect your fuel pump is bad, all you need to do to test it is to use the VW Wrench. Turn the engine over turning the generator, and watch to see if fuel pumps out of the fuel pump line which you disconnect. If the car doesn't want to run, and you have to pump the accelerator pedal a lot to keep it running, it's probably the accelerator pump on the carburetor and not the pump. Rebuilding fuel pumps is a thing of the past since the kits cost as much as a new pump.
Fuel pump push rods come in different lengths. The push rod must match the pump. If it's too long it will break the pump, and if it’s too short it won't pump. Before bolting the new pump down, hold it down in place and turn over the engine by hand, and check for action.
