hopefully it didn't burn the pump out. Most of the time when I have changed a fuel filter that was plugged enough to cause a driveability concern it takes the pump out. The one time it was still on the hoist and the pump most of free spun after I put the new filter one and it burned the pump out. The bad thing was I upsold the filter from a service. It still had the original eqipment stamp on it. The customer thought it was our fault and didn't want to pay for the pump. I just told them, better to happen here the on the hi-way..
