Here's the situation: I recently purchased a 50,000-mile '74 1.8 that has been sitting for 12 years. I have the engine out for maintenance prior to starting it up. Yesterday I was replacing the fuel lines to/from the fuel pump and got to thinking - if this thing is not working it'll be much more difficult to replace with the engine installed. Best to find out now if it doesn't work.
So, is there a way to "bench" test the pump with the engine out? Electrical systems are not very intuitive to me. Thanks. |
