On a bosh fuel pump (3 tit) does it cut out if it cannot get fuel?? I realize if it is intermittant it is probably a loose connection, loose or bad relay, loose pin on board, or dirty fuse on board, etc.
i am at work, and i am not so sure i will make it home tonight, i have a few tools, but no electrical stuff with me. i was wondering .... what would the pump do with good power and a clogged line?? i made it half way to work and the pump cut out 3 times within 1 min, then dead. i pulled over checked the pump and all connections tight. i tried to start it 4-5 times, heard the pump run for 1 sec then dead. crawled under and shook the filtre and banged on the pump. it started but would not idle. i then loosend the clamp holding the pump and turned it upside down. car started and kept strong at high idle but started to choke below 3500 rpm. I risked the drive into work, and made it idling between 3500 and 4500, it would start to cut out and i would downshift jump the rpm and it was ok again. welcome to my life |

i got frusterated last night, looking for the problem. I did not see your post
i will try again (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) thank you. (dont be mad) I did drive it to work today. She really runs great. No reason not to drive a bueatiful car on a bueatiful day, because of a loose wire and missing side marker lenses (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |
