Purchased and installed a new fuel pump on my 292. Once installed tried to start engine. NO go. Not getting fuel. Thought it was pumping air some place as I installed new fuel lines and a cleaned out gas tank. Checked all that out and reinstalled pump . Same thing. took pump out and saw that eccentric is not touching the pump arm. I am aware that it needs to touch inorder to pump fuel. So, being a big block guy is there a secret to installing this pump? I stuck my finger in the pump hole and couldnt feel anything. So, I motored the engine over a few times and finally felt what may be the eccentric. If pump is installed how can it NOT be touched by the eccentric? Doesnt seem possible. Thanks for the help.
