Water had gotten on top of the fuel pump and corroded the contacts where the wires are attached. Although I had no problems I replaced the pump and the rubber sealing ring. The fuel pump outer cover shrinks with age and causes water to be able to penetrate to the top of the pump. No water had gotten into the tank and the sealing ring was still tight and like new. I would highly recommend checking your outer top cover to the pump to see the top of the pump where the two wires connect with nuts. If there is water there it will be corroded and it is only a matter of time before you will encounter problems. Gary W.
