You could've lifted the vst out with the cowling in place. That's why the bottom grommet tab s slotted.

How about after the vst tank? I’ve cleaned that out but still having problems. I assume it’s the injectors. Would love that part

I know this is a old video but I have a question. When removing the low pressure fuel pump is it easier to remove the latch or the cowling to make room to get the pump out?

You should be able to hear it. And yes, you can, but be very careful. Always set up a fire extinguisher or water hose, ahead of time. Just in case.

Is there any chance that the low pressure pump can make alot of noise on and off again. Great video
@normwetzel5361 Жыл бұрын
Would it be possible for the pump motor to continue running when the motor is shut down? The first time it happened the only way to stop it was to disconnect the battery, What it sounds like is a pump motor running and one is not able to restart the motor, We disconnected the battery for about an hour and put the wires back on an hour later it was OK.

2017 merc 40 4 stroke, motor runs only for minates then quits, pump up fuel back into motor and will start again but runs only for a few minates. Thought it was vent on cap and replaced it but motor still won't operate properly. Any ideas ? I've replace the mechanical pump, cleaned all filters, checked electric fuel pump and all of that was ok. Can it be a pressure valve ?

Have a question. My fuel filter in the right side of the engine isn’t staying full of fuel. I pump the bulb and after a while while running the engine it empties out. Is this normal or is the pump bad? I’ve replaced primer bulb hose, water separator kit new, and checked all hoses for leaks. I also took apart and cleaned out the vst and everything was good. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Great video for sure the reason I was watching it is because I have a 2007 Mercury 40 Hp bigfoot and I started seeing fuel leaking out of what looks like a white plastic thing which also has really fine threads on the outside. Lots of stuff packed into that area but is that the overflow indicator for a stuck needle valve letting to much fuel into the housing? Any help would be very appreciated:) Thanks

Thanks! Totally saved me from screwing up my 4 stroke VST. I've been to school on them long ago but today is my first time to do it and your video is on a motor EXACTLY like mine. I have had fuel issues for the last 3 or 4 seasons. Mercury tech told me my problem is the fuel cooler. it acts like it is a vapor lock issue.... I think it is more than that. Starts and runs fine then when I get ready to leave a job site it doesn't want to run as if it is out of fuel. I can loosen the filter and pump cool fuel through then it usually will start up and go again. This year it didn't do that so well.... time to get serious.

John, I have the same motor. I am having an issue of the motor starving for fuel at higher rpms. The motor sat for a few years before I bought it. I cleaned the vst, replaced the high pressure pump, replaced the lift pump, swapped the fuel filter, checked my plugs. I have used two different diameter fuel hoses to two different external fuel tanks and nothing solves the issue. I know there is air in system but I can’t figure where! I suspect the vst is emptying and then sucking air at higher rpms. So why and what is the issue?? Thank you!

Yea well from experience there is a rubber gasket that has to be perfect or it will leak. I used rtv type stuff made for gas to make it stop leaking. Mercury sent me a new gasket and it leaks like a sieve. It’s like they gave me the wrong gasket.

Bad drain seal inside the vst. Maybe a bad housing. Or maybe it's just not screwed in, all the way.

@thediplomasta58913 жыл бұрын
No tyler, the bottom hose on the VST is only a couple inches long. It's a service drain. But funny enough, by the time most people take it in for service, that drain is totally blocked with debris. Ergo, useless. 🤔 It's existence, is probably just some EPA thing.
