I am begining to hate my engine, I cant figure out the problems, and more syptoms are starting to appear!!
For starters, I have had to replace the fuel pump fuse 2 times in the last two days.. Both times I was stranded in the road.. Luckly I had enough sense today to take one of the ones from a light. Next Im having power surges, asside from having almost no power.. I am still having a high idle problem and I still cant get the electronic ignition to work.. ARGG! |

I think I know the problem..
When dad wired the fuel pump, he used one of the points that turned on when the key was on, now I just put in a radio the day before my fuel pump kept blowing fuses.. I think I am over loading the fuse, and since I got the car home by wiring the pump directly to the battery, I am going to have the pump wired to the battery, and I will have a switch for the pump inside the car. This will double as a anti theift device (asside from the car being very hard to drive) Does this sound right? Andrew |
