Hi all,
Occie, my V8, has developed the habit of taking ages to start on the key when the car's been standing for a day or more. Once started, restarts are fine. I'm thinking it's likely to be a problem with the non-return valves in the mechanical fuel pump leaking down, but I can't just buy a rebuild kit as I know my pump has the seemingly-unobtainable 1" valves.
So, does anyone have a spare pump with the 3/4" valves they'd part with?
