wouldn't the fuel wash the oil out of the leather in a short period of time?


yes but the oil relaxes the leather so it will conform to the bore better so it ends being reshaped before the gas washes the oil out. Are you feeling pressure (tension) build as you manually push the plunger down the bore? If so take off the AP squirter and take out the brass check valve that's under it & see if you get a squirt now EDIT I would expand the leather edge with a small screwdriver so it grips the bore better, just run it around the inside edge MORE EDIT is there a supposed to be a check ball in the floor drain of the bore? Cause there a direct passage from the bore outlet to the squirter, nothing can go wrong there unless it's totally plugged & never seen that (yet) but the brass needle under the squirter can get glued down from evaporation & block flow but you're going to take that out for a check
