[V8] Wonderful Dead V8

[Paul Jager]

Warning...

The sensors do a great job of mimicking a fuel pump issue. when the sensors
cool, the car will work fine. when hot they are intermittent. i did my fuel
pump like 3 x times huffed enough gas vapours to pickle me before i I got
wind of those two sensors.

took me a heck of a lot longer than 10 minutes to replace the pr. too. I was
working at it from under the car with the wheel off it was hell. the exhaust
pipe restricts access. my hands are pretty big.

V8 is ALIVE!!!..... Taking out the fuel pump and shaking it draining it
etc.. made it to where its magic back to life! however I do not trust it
I will /replace the part and be done with it.

Thanks Listers! I have 13,269 emails archived dating back to the day I
got the V8.. I searched the list found the likely culprits and went from
there. Without your help I would have been lost. You guys rock!

Thanks again.

Verdict: Fuel pump is on last leg..  :)
