Replaced my fuel pump the 14th of August and everything was running fine. However as of now when the car is idling or running at a low speeds, 1st or low 2nd gear, the car will die off. It is not all the time just here and there. I am thinking dirty idle air sensor or bad fuel pump relay. Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem or if any of you have any ideas of what it could be and how I can test for them. Help much appreciated!
Okay hit a snag in this simple replacement. The pigtail connector has melted through. Can't seem to find one at Advanced or AutoZone. Anyone know where I can find one of these guys?
Sorry this is about the second part of the car I honestly know nothing about, the other being a transmission. Will this pump work? it says it wont but it looks similar to what ive seen for others and i cant seem to find one with a sending unit or it will be an inline one...which i dont have.
So a couple weeks ago bought an '85 Thunderbird, cheap, in great condition, and low miles. About a week ago my car starts having problems starting and a couple days ago, in the morning i was having problems keeping it running and when i would hit the gas it would be really bogged down. Finally driving to get it back home when it completely stops and wont keep running. Would start fine but couldnt keep going. I replaced the TFI module and the fuel filter along with the cap and rotor although that last one was a major long shot but i already had the part to change it. Finally have it narrowed down to the fuel pump as it only comes through here and there. Question here being what do i need for a fuel pump replacement? Any brands to avoid? And any tips to make it go as smoothly as possible since it only has the one fuel pump in the tank?
