Getting my car back together after replacing the fuel pump with a 2-port Bosch 69133 unit from Napa.
Car starts as normal, but when I turn her off she just keeps running. I can remove the key from ignition and she keeps running. And of course, this isn't some sort of overrun condition....actual running. Pull the coil wire and she dies as expected. Other notes, fuel pump is wired to switch power up front (previous owner did this). :dunno: |

I was thinking about my fuel pump installation....
The old 3-port fuel pump mounted up front was large enough in diameter that it fit perfectly in the bracket being used. The new 2-port fuel pump is a smaller diameter. I couldn't get the bracket tightened down enough to secure it. So....... I took an old bicycle inner tube and cut it up. I wrapped the tube around the new Bosch 2-port pump to give it some more girth (diameter) such that it now secures tightly in the bracket. Question though....does the pump get any grounding from the bracket itself? As of now, with the rubber inner tube wrapped around it, it is totally isolated from ground except for the "suspect" ground wire I am working on. |
