Is the problem only when the fuel is in the lower half of the gauge?BTW, one post is enough, no need to post the same post in multiple sections of the forum and Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigfulla Member 6 Member For: 17y 12d Gender: Male Posted 16/01/10 07:29 AM Author Share Posted 16/01/10 07:29 AM hi again, thanks for your input , I was wondering about the fuel pump so I got a WALBRO GSS 342 FUEL PUMP , but I thought that the fuel pump either worked or stopped no in between ? that's why I haven't fitted the new pump as yet ? anyway I might just bite the bullet and fit it and it will eliminate the pump from the list.. thanks regards bigfulla...
