pump could have given up the ghost. have you checked fuel is getting through?

I wouldn't be sure of any spec list unless i was there when the work was done, or I know the guy, or it is someone that i have met off here with receipts. Not saying it isn't all there but I'd check before driving it like it is.

We weren't laughing at you or or your car - more your lack of information post!!

I was thinking of that!!!

 

[snoon]

some times walbro's can be poorly fitted and come loost. Mine did and the wires split and the pump gave up. It had also lost the little filter off the end and sucked some crap out of tank so it was fooked.

There only 70 ish so not the end of the world if it is that.

Can you not hear the pump when you turn the ignition on?

As a last resort - take it out of the tank and test it with a live wire.

good luck!
