Hi all, What is a solid way to test a fuel pump? Here is my problem... My '84 van quit running the other day. I removed the line that exist the fuel pump, no fuel. I performed the relay test according to the Bentley and it passed. I measured the current draw on the fuel pump, it read 7 A. I removed the line from the tank exit, a nice steady stream of fuel poured out. I removed the line from the exit of the filter, also a nice steady stream poured out. Can the fuel pump be plugged or bound somehow? If it is jammed, will it still draw only 7 amps? Thanks in advance, Matt ===== Matt Faust '84 Wolfsburg Weekender "Moby" '63 Westy SO-33 Sub-hatch "Rusty" __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
