I have replaced the fuel tank, sending unit, fuel lines, hoses, and the fuel pump, but fuel still isn’t going to the carburetor. Any suggestions?

That never occurred to me.is it possible,and wouldnt something break?Did you get the FP arm under the eccentric where it belongs?
Hammer handle. Never hit carb with a hammer. Unless its a tapometer(small one)Carb float stuck? Wack the carb with a hammer.Listen for float to drop.

Ya I should have been a little more specific. I assume people have common sense. Probably aint the problem anyway. I'm sure the OP has checked with the fuel line disconnected.Hammer handle. Never hit carb with a hammer. Unless its a tapometer(small one)
Gas, pour some in the tank.I have replaced the fuel tank, sending unit, fuel lines, hoses, and the fuel pump, but fuel still isn’t going to the carburetor. Any suggestions?
You may have a short pickup tube in the tank, add more fuel to submerge the end of the tube.I have replaced the fuel tank, sending unit, fuel lines, hoses, and the fuel pump, but fuel still isn’t going to the carburetor. Any suggestions?
I`m wondering what kind of fuel pump he`s using. Did I miss it ? Did he check the new pick up assembly to make sure it was not plugged ? Most new elec. pumps that I have bought over the years,are plugged some way or another too.You may have a short pickup tube in the tank, add more fuel to submerge the end of the tube.
It’s for wher the return line hooks to. Where else would the return line go?The "flow" arrow is pointing toward the Carb, then yes its hooked up correctly. I have never seen a filter with T hookup like that. What is the purpose of that?
