Hey Rand, when I first turn the key, i hear a humm / clicking sound. In checking the filter, should I disconnect the end opposite the filter away from fuel source?

Yes, and sence you are going to pull that off put a piece of hose on it and run that hose into a receptical and have someone turn on the key and check out the flow it doesn't take much preasure for carbs. At least you will know that it is or isn't your fuel pump. |
