Re: fuel pump? (vento III)

if it`s an 87 16v like it says in your sig,then the one in the tank is just the transfer pump.The main pump is under the passenger side door towards the back(and NOT a ten minute job!)Depending on how rusty and coroded everything is.It`s mostly getting the lines broke free I guess.Good luck.

Re: fuel pump? (beachball6)

Sounds like one of the pumps...how's your gas filter lookin'? Been changed lately? or injectors cleaned and spraying properly?
How's it run once started?
