Same thing happened to my CUCV, installed a check valve in the output side
of the mechanical fuel pump and a stanadyne check valve in the injector
pump. Total cost around 30 bucks and a two beer project!! It starts on the
first try anytime, everywhere.Sorry, forgot the dealer name but those valves
are available most anywhere!
