Re: First drive
That sucks, hopefully it is just the fuel pump and a quick fix. I put a new motor in mine, then fought gremlins for a month before I could make it more then 2 miles from the house.

Re: First drive
sounds like me the night before the 500 mile trip to the goodguys nats in columbus a year or two ago. i had 2 pumps go out, the second one went out at around 11 p.m. luckily we have a few muscle cars. We borrowed a fuel pump from oe of them. now i have a nice new chrome one.
