Ok, so i just put a new accelerator pump in and it still dosn't seem to be spraying any fuel when pumped?

How can i test it? Does the car have to be running, because wont' the idle stop solenoid stop any fuel coming through if it is not on, therefore not being able to see if any fuel is sprayed?

Where should the fuel be spraying out of? i can see one jet coming out of the side wall where the accelerator pump check weight is and another underneath the actual butterfly. This is all in the primary system.

The float chamber needs to be full for the accelerator pump to squirt fuel down the primary throat.

Yeah, the float chamber is full, i just want to know where the actual fuel comes out of, which jet. And whether it will do this when the idle stop solenoid has not got power going to it.
