Subject:Re: Fuel pump dead? Help!!
Date:Mon, 10 Apr 2000 13:37:44 EDT

If the pump is getting power then you should check the ground on the pump as
maybe it is bad and not allowing you a complete circuit.  It is the other
plug on the pump and attaches to the frame under the van.  Clean up the
connections.
If your pump was running for some reason with no fuel going through it then
this will kill it quick.  If your ground is good then your pump is toast.
Could be just a coincidence that it decided to die right now.  Just be
thankful that it didn't happen on a lonely road somewhere.  I have a good
used pump that I would part with for $50.  Or I have new pumps available for
$135 (Piersburg- German).
Let me know.

Thanks,
Ken Wilford
