Re: 15 yr old son ask me a question I cant answer
I thought about the fuel pump thing when I had to replace one and had to replace the fuel pump pig tail with a newer design. I usually solder and heat shink or tape. Oviously was worried bout tape or heat shrink in the gasoline not to metion the open flame to do the deed. I ended up using the supplied butt connectors. Most mention the pump its self blowing up, I think the most likely thing would be a loose connection which can cause enough heat to burn up a connector and a low tank of gas.

Re: 15 yr old son ask me a question I cant answer
If Ford Rangers get made overseas there will never be one in my driveway. I may start rethinking all those new F-250's I have been buying for the last ten years.

With the way people like to run their tanks empty these days thinking they will save money, fuel pumps will soon have a small secondary pump section and a small radiator outside the tank to circulate oil through the pump to keep it cool. ![]()
