Q : Fuel Pump

out)

Looked at my crystal ball and it's cloudy today. So I have no idea what
vehicle you're talking about. But: Transferring the fuel to the other tank
is a problem with the tank selector valve. Common in mid 80's Fords. They
even had a recall for this problem.

Mystic Al

I quit working on fuel pumps when they started locating them in the gas
tank.  They were easy when they were mounted on the side of the engine
block.

very helpful insight there wolfpuppy, but what have you done lately?

Well, thanks, ajeeperman, but when I was asking what was his point, I was
being a bit sarcastic.  I was just making conversation, for I don't believe
every post has to be absolutely informative or sound as though it came from
a textbook,  and the reply was along the lines that I shouldn't have
bothered typing words simply because I didn't have a solution to a problem
or answer to a question.  Sometimes I just like to make a comment.  I tend
to get a little short with those who sound insulting, although I will
concede that it is hard to convey emotion in mere text.

As a case in point, this post has nothing whatsoever to do with fords.
