Hiya Mike! Sorry I haven't been in touch lately, but I'm workin workin workin! Seeing this got me motivated to getting in touch and seeing if I can help......... How's it hooked up? Obviously, you're getting fuel, otherwise the car wouldn't even fire up......but I know some fuel pumps make a lot of noise when they're not getting an awful lot of fuel........some even do it right before they run dry. When the car dies, does it 'feel' like lack of fuel? If you've been lucky, you don't know what that feels like (I do) Does it sputter and die? How's the idle (for what you get)? So.....driving the Supra, but just to work and back....running 20W50 in it.........corn syrup for your car! A life changing experience is in store for August, but we're not sure exactly when.....it's not all planned out yet. How's life with you two? Still morning man? Is the new place nice? And what about the OPP? I never did follow up to see what happened there.......... Anyhow, working nights, so I'm off to snooze for awhile. Keep me posted, and fill me in on anything else about the car, ok? It's a common automotive malady, not just a DeLorean one, so who knows how I can help? --Cory Mike Cutting wrote: > hi group.. > > well, i know that a problem similar to mine was just posted recently, but i > checked around and couldn't find the thread. sorry to revive this but, what > can you do? > > last week, my fuel pump went. i ordered a new one. the new pump works > after a fashon. it makes a very loud whining noise (the old pump made some > noise but not very loud) and the car will only run for a second or so. then > it dies. any thoughts? > > MIke Cutting > 11434 > > Before posting messages or replies, see the posting policy rules at: > www.dmcnews.com/Admin/rules.html > > To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: > moderator@xxxx > > Your use of Yahoo!
