What happens here

With the valve disassembled, identify the obstruction, which is described as a 'nasty goober' or 'solid chunk of rubbery nastiness.' This is likely degraded fuel additives or accumulated sediment. Use a small tool, such as a screwdriver or pick, to carefully push, scrape, and extract this clog from the valve's internal passages and the removed rubber components. Ensure all debris is thoroughly removed, making sure the pathways are clear for smooth fuel flow. This video segment concludes with the removal of the clog, but reassembly and testing would be the next steps.

Goal: Remove all debris and restore unimpeded fuel flow through the valve.

What they say

Hide

a little rubber piece in there. And out comes the valve. Give her a little push with our tool there. That's it. She's birthing out a nasty goober. Just a solid chunk of rubbery nastiness. Going to name you a slime ball. Look at that. That's what I got. The injection pump is full of that stuff. Good girl. Googly doo. We'll never get this job
