Re: possible fuel pump failure?

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxx>]

Before you condemn the pump make sure the pick-up hose isn't
collapsing or kinked or has a hole in it allowing air to get in. If it
is soft either put a spring inside it or replace it. If the pump is
still noisy then it probably is wearing out.
