Once had a similar problem. Before you go replacing the pump, make sure all of your chassis grounds are tight and clean. BTDT! I used to drive down the road and the car would suddenly quit...dead. T

I concur (or... me too). Mine was the earth lead from the battery negative to the chassis. Really full of gunk (which made it seem tight - cleaned away the gunk and there was plenty of slack). The le

Just got back from a 3 hour ride in the 79B that I bought in June. It had only been driven about 100 miles/year for the last 5 years and had a new fuel pump installed a few years ago. Tonight everyt

How about checking the fuel filter? Or just replace it, it's one of those things that lots of DPOs never replace unless they fail. <dnw> 1972 Midget 1998 Safari 1999 9-3 1964 (Me) but another /// ///

Hi Monte, Not enuff info to decide what was going wrong. Sounds electrical tho. You need to buy a shop manual with a trouble-shooting guide in it. Cheers, CR /// /// mgs@autox.team.net mailing list /

Before I got too radical, I would first check the ground point for the fool pump. It should be attached to one of the bolts that anchors the boot lid catch. Make sure the ground strap there is clean

O.K. here's the problem. (59 MG Magnette has an aftermarket elec. fuel pump--not an S.U.) Car is running really great...just after a tune-up and timing adjustment. Stop by the pub for a bite....come

What a weird way of checking there's voltage on a hot lead directly let it spark to ground. It's quite obvious the fuse will be gone by now or you might have other damage. Better use a lamp or voltm

Pull the outlet tubing off the pump, then try and see if it pumps. Also, if there is a filter before the pump, replace it. At this point, if there is no fuel flow, I'd say replace the pump. As a fin

Nice car! Check the carburetor float bowls for fuel. If empty, as someone else already mentioned, remove the output hose from the fuel pump and see if it's pumping. Before doing this, make sure you h

Is it successfully filling the bowls and running on, or is it having trouble filling the bowls? If you have an air leak in the fuel line from the pump to the tank, the pump will have trouble filling

Mine misses like that -- under no load, and I know I have a burnt exhaust valve and leaking exhaust at the downpipe. You might check your compression or just test at the tailpipe with a piece of pap

Rick, Trevor, Dan, & Jerry, Many thanks for the suggestions. I think a sticking outlet valve on the fuel pump is the most likely source of the problem there, especially in view of its taking so long

Well, the valve slowly spins in it's guide. Since the weakness is caused by some defect in the valve or seat shaping, it might change as the valve and seat line up in different ways. Just a WAG. -- T
