Hi all!
I have had an electric pump in my 1009 for 3 years now. It is a civy
one off the shelf at local parts store for $40. I set mine up so that
when you turn the ignition key to on position, my electric pump starts
priming the system while I wait for the glow plugs. It still did not
help the fuel drain back. Changing the fuel pressure switch will and
did (and cheaper).

Subject: [MV] CUCV diesel problems
I'm sorry listers. A week ago someone was looking for ideas on a CUCV
that
looses fuel system priming after sitting for a few days and I lost the
e-mail.
One answer is to install a AC Delco in-line electric fuel pump on the
inside
of the right rear frame area.
The AC Delco part number is EP12S and the GM p/n is 6472381. I found
out
that they are available through AC Delco distributors currently and my
local
shop has one in stock with more available within one or two days.
They list for $82.54 but someone with a fleet discount like my company
can
purchase them for $53.94 + tax.
The CUCV trucks have a break in the hard line in this area with a soft
piece
of tube installed for vibration relief.
I added a piece of extra fuel tubing and installed my pump there where
it is
not seen unless you are laying on the ground looking up. I installed a
momentary on switch and use it when it has been sitting for a while
during
the winter or when I'm changing fuel filters. It makes bleeding the
system
a breeze. The dealer that I can acquire them from is at 337-237-0040 in
Louisiana and is a "Car Care" auto parts outlet.
