Took my poor girlfriend suffering from a nasty cold out for some fresh air and to pick up dinner. Little did she know she'd get to push a 914 through a busy intersection at rush hour. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
So here's the deal, the car quit right after I pulled up on the heater handle by the gear shift...well that's odd! Must be a coincidence. Got the car pushed to a parking lot, it cranked fine but I couldn't hear the fuel pump. So I checked and I blew the 15 amp fuse in the engine fuse box. Swapped out the fuse, problem solved! Fuel pump kicked back on and away we went! (Glad I finally got an "oh shit" bag in the frunk a couple of weeks ago, that's the FORD bag in the pic, don't judge! lol) When we got home, out of curiosity I pulled the heater handle up again, and son of a gun, it quit. Fuel pump silent, fuse blown! Can someone tell me to connection between pulling that handle and the fuel pump circuit??
