Fuel basics

[imbodie]

Ok, Same scenario that I've read about a couple of times on these forums already. Car was running fine, parked it, two days later would not start. Local mechanic said the injector pump was dead and it wasn't worth fixing.

A couple of days later the car was given to me because I had lusted over it since my friend had bought it. There is no fuel getting to the filter. I thought there was an electric supply pump. A post on this site implied that there was not a transfer or supply pump. So how does the fuel get to the injector pump?

I get the feeling I'm in for some priming of the fuel system, but where do I start?

Thanks,
Tim
