1. the fuel pump will turn on as soon as i turn the key and it wont stop. is that normal? if not then how long is it suppose to stay on ? and how can fix it

2. My turn signals stay on after i turn the car off unless i return the lever to the middle position. is that normal?

1. Depends on what you're running. Stock L-Jet FI? Carbs? Any modification we should know about?

2. Yes. It's a feature, not a bug. Most all European cars behave the same way, it's a "parking light" that you control with your turn signal lever.

3. Too many possibilities to list here. We need more info. When was the last time the valves were adjusted? Stock engine? Carbs? FI?

the engine is stock and the fuel system is fuel Injection. I just started working on the car it was sitting in my brothers backyard for a year and that the previous owner had it in the garage for 6 years or more not sure how many. so I'm kind of learning as i go.
as far as I know nobody that has done any-kind of modifications on it.
I replaced the plugs, distributor cap, and most of fuel system hoses, i took the gas tank off and cleaned it lots of rust inside, the fuel pump is under the tank and it just keeps pumping. i printed the hose diagram for the fuel system and reconnected all the hoses the right way.
