Experience is generally a good thing when troubleshooting; it can lead one to the issue sometimes immediately. But! If guessing at the solution proves not to be the case (fix), it"s back to the basics time!



FUEL PRESSURE (static) = ?

Current draw on the pump diagnostic test point (red wire about 5cm long w/ a black terminal sticking out of the large wire loom near the W/S wiper motor) when ignition key is in the OFF position [8-10 amperes is normal for both pumps running nornally].



Let us know what U find...

Hi Paul . So the amp draw is only 7 amps and the fuel pressure reading was at 47 psi [emoji849][emoji3525][emoji853]

You have at least one bad pump. Pull the FP1 pump fuse and check again. That will give you the reading for FP2. Subtract that number from the combined number (in your case 7 amps) and you’ll have the reading for FP1. You might as well just replace both pumps while your in there.

Hi Mike, we are having a maintenance day this Saturday at Jim's....wish you were here. I have 2 extra sitting on my shelf. I use Electric Performance fuel pumps part number:
P-240KC. I think I got them at RockAuto. If you have any problems finding them, let me know and I will put my 2 in the mail to you.
