You should see how fast fuel is flowing out of the tank.
If the tank partially blocked the new pump will be noisy, overheat and burn
out too.

Subject: Re: fuel pump instructions?

I am about to replace my fuel pump, which is making an awful racket.� My
Bentley has info on page 20.16 for checking the rate, but nothing that I can
see on replacing the pump.� Is there anything I should watch out for?� I
have a new pump, but that is all.� Is there some compound that is used on
the hose connections or anything like that?

Thanks for the info,
Matt
