thanks Chris , I'll try that. No need to change the fuel filter as there was not one in the first place althoigh I've now installed a new one.

My newly aquired Ferret had a tank full of extremely stale & horrid smelling fuel & was also running rough so I decided to drain out the fuel & have replaced it with new. Problem now is the fuel is not being pumped to the carb. If put petrol into the bleed valve on the outlet side of the fuel filter the engine will run until that fuel is used. Does the pump need to be primed, has the waxy fuel clogged it - who knows. Any ideas on how to fix this problem desperately needed . Thanks Keith 00 EC 16
