Bedford T has posted some comments in the comments section my video. if anyone wants to translate this for me... please go for it. I don't understand what he is saying

"Matt your vacuum test Is off. the vacuum Is not working right if it holds pressure. it should leak down. move, stop, move stop or a steady slow leak then the valve is operating correctly. I thought helping you was the right thing."

"pressure builds up and it causes the fuel flow to stop of not flow and ypur fuel is no moving around. so the test is a solid hold on the pressure. I use 20 seconds. then change the pump to vac put vac on the fuel circuit. this time the needle should move within 20 seconds and consistently drop. it can sputter and drop or drop slowly consistently. that is the way it works. good luck. bedtime."


I just don't know what he's talking about.... anyone?

I always give more credence to the video than to the comments. No idea what he means...

I have no idea. It should either hold pressure or vaccum. A very very slow leak down on vaccum is allowed by factory to my understanding?
