fool pump.. :(
Arg.
I think things are getting better for the ZJ but lately the
fuel pump has been making a bearing style noise. The old
mk-1 brain can't remember if the pump runs then stops then
runs or runs all the time.
Anyhoo, time to dig through the service manual and read on
how to check the pump for volume and pressure. May have to
pay someone for this if I can't whomp up the proper equipment.
fooey.

The purpose in having two Jeeps is so you
can drive one to get parts for the other.

Re: fool pump.. :(
The only time it shuts off is when the engine is not running,
that's what the by-pass is for, to turn a ninety pound pump into a
constant forty. If you can hear it over engine noise it's time to change
it. Or be ready to kick the tank to wake it up to get home.

That makes sense. The pump starts out silent (teeny buzz) but then gets
quite loud, loud enough to hear it over the exhaust (Banks header, Gibson
cat-back) so that's loud.
Looks like I've got a $265 investment coming up. Pricy little bugger.
$235 from Napa, but the OEM one for $30 more is probably what I'll get.
