You are correct Caleb! Boy, are you getting good at this. Mine did the
same thing before I put in new switch and electric pump.

Hey,

If you are sending fuel into the hose in the top of the injector pump, that
may be your problem. I am not a total CUCV expert, but I belive that the
fuel goes from the tank via hardline, to the front of the frame under the
engine, short softline to the mechanical pump, hardline to the back of the
engine, softline into the fuel filter base, softline out of the fuel filter
base to supply the engine, and this line goes right into the center of the
injectoir pump, where all of the injector lines hook in. Someone correct me
if I am wrong. The line you are forcing fuel into might be a return line.
The return lines could have residual fuel in them, so I wouldn't take that
as gospel for the injectors getting fuel. Best way to tell would be to crack
or take the injector line off then crank the engine, fuel should squirt out.

Good luck.

Caleb
