Re: Restoring Rusty
picked up this handy fuel delivery system at the Dollar store, part number K&M 1, (get it, Katchup & Mustard 1) I crack myself up
I use the red one for gasoline it works great when you need to fill up the carburetor bowls through the vent tubes, top tip (the yellow one is for mustard, duh, JK) |

Re: Restoring Rusty
One of the annoying things about the GM performance rebuildable mechanical pumps is the inlet and outlet are 180° apart and it's difficult to get them clocked so they don't interfere with something.
GM 12355613, the one you have, is 9PSI at 115GPH with 1/2NPT fittings. GM 6415325 is 7PSI 30GPH with a slightly smaller diameter body with 1/4NPT fittings. Holley makes a rebuildable mechanical smallblock fuel pump that allows you to clock the in and out fittings independently from eachother for about the same price point as the 12355613 GM Performance pump. Holley 12-327-11 is 6.5-8PSI and 110GPH with 3/8NPT fittings

Re: Restoring Rusty
so Mr. Money Bagz over here decided to drop $85 bucks on yet another "Performance" fuel pump (and I use that term loosely, as any company that has to tell you their part is a "Performance" part three times on the front of the box alone, is most likely not selling you an [ahem] Performance part
so here is the Holley part number 12-834 fuel pump Made in Korea (well, than it's gotta be good right?!) ha ha - didn't notice that in the store when I bought it, I was blinded by the shinnyness of this darn thing I believe the line on the back of the box should read: "Look Out for These Other Holley Performance Products" man I am on a roll today Last edited by Gregski; 06-11-2016 at 12:21 AM. |

Re: Restoring Rusty
and once again the [ahem] Performance part does not come with any inlet or outlet fittings, and naturally the Holley uses a different size (1/4 inch pipe thread rather than the 3/8ths like the GM one did)
not the inlet and outlet ports are not 180* opposite each other like on the GM fuel pump, which is an application limiting feature, in other words an Epic Fail, I'm looking at you GM not sure if there is any Top Gear fans here (yes the UK version not the American rubish) well anyway one time they were talking about a Porsche not sure which model, (or a Volkswagen as Jeremy puts it, ha ha) and they said the base model with run you $60K and comes with AC (or climate control as they call it), Blue Tooth, and a radio, where as the "Sports" model, aka the performance one costs $80 (so $20K more) and has no AC, no Blue Tooth, and no radio... ha ha, so you pay more to get less, loved that episode!!! |

Re: Restoring Rusty
Fuel Pump Replacement Top Tip (F.P.R.T.T.)
use the magnet on a stick to slide the fuel pump push rod back up, or at least get that oily sucker up high enuff to get your finger under it (I know guys recommend using a longer bolt in that side hole to hold it up, but what if you aint got the clearance to get to that bolt, or you forgot and it dropped already, etc.) use the hacksaw blade to hold it up while you slide the new fuel pump lever under it, the blade is thin enuff and bendy enuff to git the job done hugs Last edited by Gregski; 06-11-2016 at 01:03 AM. |

Re: Restoring Rusty
I read on these forums that some guys have tried MARVEL Mystery Oil additive and that eliminated their ticking sounds, so The Greg tried it, but to no surprise this snake oil also let him down, and the ticking sound remained

Re: Restoring Rusty
some forum members suggested that the noise could be coming from the Primitive Crancase Ventilation valve, PCV, so I removed it temporarily and the ticking sound remained, so that can't be it

Re: Restoring Rusty
The Greg remembered that one time when he was lazy he took his beloved '97 Chevy Tahoe to Jiffy Lube for a quick oil change, and those knuckleheads used the wrong oil weight and his valves chatter was more annoying than Gregory Hines tap dancing until he quenched his rigs thirst with the proper and Vortec friendly SAE 5W-30 nectar
so since O'Really was having an oil special, 5 quarts plus oil filter for $18 bucks, he went out and got some Note: The MicroGuard oil filter was Made in U.S.A. and did that eliminate the engine ticking sound? NO |

Re: Restoring Rusty
that's it, that does it, then it was time to Conquer by Division
So, The Greg believing the ticking sound was a comin' from the passenger side, he did the following. 1. Unplugged the #8 spark plug wire from the distributor - the noise was there, so plugged it back in 2. Unplugged the #6 spark plug wire from the distributor - the noise was there, so plugged it back in 3. Unplugged the #4 spark plug wire from the distributor - THE NOISE WAS GONE - then plugged it back in and the noise came back 4. Unplugged the #2 spark plug wire from the distributor - the noise was there, so plugged it back in FYI I turned the truck off each time I manipulated the spark plug leads, remember safety third!!! |

Re: Restoring Rusty
so I removed the passenger side valve cover and checked the #4 Intake and Exhaust rockers for wiggability, there was no extra play there
Next, I removed the Intake rocker completely to inspect it and removed the push rod and rolled it on a flat surface to ensure it was straight and not bent, and they both appeared to be good I ran the truck without them but the loose lifter now was tapping so I could not really isolate the ticking sound I put the Intake pushrod and rocker back in and removed the Exhaust ones and inspected them as well, they also looked good, and running the engine without this one also did not help me determine where the sound was coming from removing both rockers forced me to re adjust them which is what I wanted to do, I wanted to start from scratch with these two, and so I did I put #1 on TDC and adjusted the #4 Exhaust valve, than I put #6 on TDC and adjusted the #4 Intake valve and did that eliminate the engine ticking sound? NO |

Re: Restoring Rusty
No - pulling the plug wire off, and the sound goes away, is usually a piston problem.
