For the first time yesterday my dependable "B" left me stranded along the road while I was on my way to work. I could hear the engine starting to die so I immediately pulled to the side and was tryin

The original points-type pump works pretty darn well - as an added bonus, when they start to "go" they will tell you just how they did to you yesterday: they'll stop working, but a little tap will ge

There's also the solid state fuel pump (Moss 377-420). I've been running one of these for years with no problems. I also keep a spare in the trunk with some spare fuel hose and clamps. I figure the

You're thinking in terms of electricity. The fuel pumps have a pressure sensitive shut off so they would shut off at the appropriate pressure. Dave 72 B If one decided to run two pumps simultaneousl

I'm with Skye. I had a 'pointless' pump but have swapped a refurbed points-type back in as the pointless was intermittently failing, and you just have to wait till it decides to start working again b

I have one of the American cube-shaped electronic pumps on the Victor. Night before last, I filled up at the local station 4 1/2 blocks from my house. I barely got up the (steep) driveway, since the

Hmmm. If the pump was trying to draw current and you saw 12v at the pump terminals then the wiring back to the supply is OK and the pump wasn't pumping for some other reason. If the pump is trying to

Thanks, Paul! I would agree, but the "ifs" weren't satisfied in this case: I saw 12 volts at the pump terminals with them *disconnected*. The pump would not work when connected to the terminals, but

Thanks, Charles! I ran new wires. The situation with the ground on this car (Victor Special) is anomalous because it has a fiberglas body, so all grounds are tied together by cables. -Rock http://www

Ah, well, it is no good measuring the voltage unless the thing it is supplying is connected and trying to draw current. Connect a meter between ground and one thumb and put your other thumb on a 12v

Thanks, Paul; this is so. On the other hand, not knowing what the resistance nor impedance might be across the terminals of a working fuel-pump of unknown manufacture, I just used the meter as a quic
