VW 150-5 Engine Starting Issue

Gumming isn’t just something your puppy does to a slipper, “ Drop it. Bad dog. Grrrrrr “.

This serene looking vessel with a VW 150-5 engine, wouldn’t issue fuel under pressure. After removing the fuel pump it was then sent along to specialist fuel gurus for investigation.
