Well I managed to get the engine in and ready to go I disconnected the distributer and let her rip...after three years it's the first sound I've ever heard my car make...it was kind of nice...so I re-connected the distributer and tried it again....this is where I hit some problems.....I was getting no fuel....I checked all the electrical lines going to the pump and they were fully operational. I concluded the pump was to blame (it's an FI car by the way). I pulled the pump and attatched the battery directly to it and got nothing not even a sound...I thought mabye I should put a few jars with gas into the mix so I attatched one jar full of gas to the "S" port, I left the others open with a bucket underneath....I re-connected the battery and once again nothing......I did however notice the pump got a little bit warmer???? anyway here are my questions and I really appreciate any help anybody can give to me. 1. Did I correctly test the pump or did I screw up and hope for that operational pump still exists? 2. If I did screw up testing what is the proper way to test....do I have to prime the whole system? 3. Should the pump make any noise at all? (I don't hear a thing!) 4. What is the proper connections for the terminals. I have "S" coming from the tank/filter..? 5. What is the flow rate and at what pressure does this system work (once again I must say it is a Fuel injected system)....? 6. My motive behind six is that can another pump be used in this system...theoretically If the flow rate, PSI, and volts all match another model wouldn't it also work...?....I remeber reading on this list something about a Ford Ranger pump. 7. Can I re-build this thing myself if I have to...or is it broken forever? 8. Does anybody out there have one that works....? I guess that's it any other important info I need would be much appreciated. Thank again, Phil __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
