It is in the pump. I will bet that I probably burned it up. The way my fuel system is set up to pump into a 3 gallon swirl pot, it could run for quite some time while it was dry. The first pump is the bad pump. I didn't recognize the problem until the engine cut out when the last of the fuel in the swirl pot was burnt. Anyway, I have 3 more pumps on the shelf. I am going to switch it out on Friday. I think that will fix the problem.
