Hello Leo, I would pull the fuel pump and take it apart. I think you have a bad diaphragm. If it is not that the source of the issue seems to be in the pump from what I can gather so you should find the problem. Best of luck, John C.

Hi Daryl, I'm doing my transmission now. Bob Ziff @ AvantiParts.biz 215-420-2300 has some of these parts as does Studebaker International 317-462-3124. If you get the front and rear seals from SI have them check the rear seal number. The one I received is 1/8 inch larger diameter than the tailhousing. O'Reillys had the correct one on the shelf it is a National #7692s. The front seal is a National #6988h. I'm sure between these two you can find a new pan gasket, filter and any of other gaskets that you need. Best of luck, John C.

Thanks for the recommended supplier and ring set up. I broke three piston skirts last time out and don't want to do it again. John C.

Hello everyone, I'm rebuilding my R2 and am looking for a source for forged pistons. I need flat tops +0.030. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks, John C.
