what a difference a new fuel pump makes

[ericscorpse]

woo hoo, my car runs again. $730 on it this month so far :( The fuel pump went dead on monday. I replaced it this morning. Whom ever had replaced it before did not put the strainer/screen on it and some trash had clogged up the pump which in turn lead to it going out. Anyways I smell like gas.

Yeah running vs not running i'd say that's a pretty big difference.

You got an S14 did you get to it from the trunk or dropped the tank?



.... i almost spelled tank dankt... WTF?

actually I just folded down the back seat as it was easier for me to get to it that way :) took all of maybe 30 minutes. however, I think i didn't get the pump set back into place right. I went anf filled up after I switched them out and the gas pump did not do the auto shut off thing like it should have. Instead gas spilled out...I dunno...I guess I will check it again when I get some of the gas burned back out of it.
