[DML] Fuel Pump Seizure

["Toby Peterson" <tobyp@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Gang - I have received a report of a new pump that has siezed and no 
longer works.  The pump is a new Bosch unit, and was installed in a car 
that is currently undergoing a bunch of work to get it running after 
several years in storage.  The pump was installed after the tank was 
replaced and the lines were all cleaned out and blown through with 
compressed air.  The shop says that the pump was working fine, and 
suddenly stopped.  The mechanic applied straight power to it to test 
for a bad power circuit in the car, and verified that the pump itself 
had quit.  I remember this issue being mentioned some time ago on the 
List, but a search couldn't find that particular thread.  Any thoughts 
on how to free this stuck pump, or other measures that could be taken?  
Thanks for any input.
