[DMCForum] Fuel system updates - help!!

["Brian" <TK581@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm about to start work on my fuel pump system.  I have been having 
hot start problems and then one night I was driving home and the car 
whinned in the front and started to convulse and buck all around.  
Well, if this doesn't sound like a fuel pump problem then I don't 
know any more. (I am right...right??)  :)  

So... As a do it yourself kind of guy I want to put a new one in 
myself.  I just nspected the fuel systme so far and it looks like 
the hoses and rubber seals are in good condition!  The top nut on 
the pump looks a bit rusty which indicates that I may have some 
moisture... let's hope not.  But I have not completely remoed any 
one part of the system yet becasue I wanted to double check that I'm 
not going to rip something out that I shouldn't.  I did a few 
searches on fuel system repauir but it doesn't seem to be covered 
very much.

I'm also considering replacing the accumulator and perhaps the 
coil... just to update the system a bit.  Is this a good idea or not 
really neccessary?

Any thoughts or help is greatly appreciated!!

Brian
