Fuel Pump Replacement on my Cougar Reply #30 – December 07, 2012, 08:33:06 AM Pictures please. I think I may want to do this to my Coupe, the Bird is carbureted so no in-tank pump.Darren Quote Selected
Fuel Pump Replacement on my Cougar Reply #31 – December 08, 2012, 04:39:04 PM I got no problem at all with this thread changing over to discussion of Vinnie's access panel (I'm intrigued too) but I'm just gonna jump in for a minute and close up my end of it.Fuel was definitely leaking when I first fired the car up after re-attaching the tank. But since then, I've run the car quite a bit and driven it around several times, and I haven't seen a single drop of gas. I can't explain that, but I guess if it doesn't start leaking again and eventually proves to be reliable, then I won't worry about it. Just seems kinda weird, though. I think I'd better wait a little longer before filling the tank all the way up just in case I still have to remove it again . . . Quote Selected
Fuel Pump Replacement on my Cougar Reply #32 – December 09, 2012, 08:44:59 PM Maybe the plastic part containing the clip was not seated on the part attached to the tank which resulted in a leak until it pressured up and seated. Kinda like a bead on a tire when it seats on a rim. Grasping as straws here hoping you don't have to drop the tank again.I do apologize for the hi-jack in my earlier post. Hopefully Vinnie can start a thread with all the details and leave this one to the hopefully now solved problem.Darren Quote Selected
