Ok Mustang guy , I'll explain the less than warm welcome you got here , cause it appears you've missed one BIG detail ......

This is a board dedicated EXCLUSIVELY to the THIRD GENERATION of the GM F BODY CAR . As such , the ONLY cars your allowed to discuss here are 1982 through 1992 Chevy Camaro / Pontiac Firebird ONLY . Hence the name "Third Gen . Org" , didn't you notice all the nice pictures of Camaros and Firebirds ONLY , with not a Mustang in sight ?

Your best bet will be to find a Mustang forum and ask your questions there , You just unknowingly did the internet equivalent of riding a Honda Shadow (Fake Harley) into the parking lot of a real Harley bar , and were left wondering why you got your azz kicked ........

Re: fuel pump
