Re: fuel pump problems i need some advice
How many amperes does it draw with the engine running?
How much voltage does the pump harness wire have, when testing near the pump with the engine running? How much voltage is on the ground wire, when testing near the pump with the engine running?
How much pressure does it provide at full throttle, maximum RPM?
The USUAL cause of failed replacement pumps is debris in the tank. Was the tank properly cleaned when the replacement pump was installed?
