I wondered about that. The pump is activated by the factory switch labeled "primer." It seemed to me the inline pump was a hillbilly way to fix a larger problem somewhere else. I may attempt to eliminate it.

I have recurring fuel delivery problems on my 1977 1750 Loadstar with a DV550. The truck may start and run, however, air intrusion appears to be occurring causing the engine to starve for fuel and attempt to die. Someone has plumbed an electric fuel pump inline between the tank and primary fuel filter. Activating the pump with the factory "primer" switch keeps the engine running but is a pain. I've replaced both fuel filters and dropped and cleaned the tank (which was already impeccably clean). The suction line inside the tank appeared to be solid, with no holes to suck air. I'm curious if anyone has experience as to where I should start searching for air intrusion. I'm guessing either a cracked rubber line or a fitting with the rubber sealing ring that has broken down. I'm contemplating application of low pressure air to the fuel tank to accentuate the leak. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks

I'd definitely prefer that. Do you remember the user name?

Was the ebay valve from an outfit called arshydraulic out of Finland? Any idea what brand the valve is? Looks almost too good for the money... I wonder if shipping and customs along with fittings adapters would be substantial?

I plan to install a loader on my 1086 for winter feeding and was curious what brand joystick control valve to look for? I plan to have the valve located remotely from the control, since I have no desire for hose routing in the cab. The tractor is a 77 model with open center hydraulics and has two sets of remotes. The remotes will be used to control a bale processor, and as such will be unavailable to power the loader. I appreciate any advice.
