 Listers,

ond.=C2=A0 This was true whether at idle or higher rpm.=C2=A0 I knew that n=
ormally at idle there was an occasional click.

Once back home I restarted the car and same thing.=C2=A0 Then over several =
days I attempted to fix the prob.=C2=A0 A different pump gave the same resu=
lts.=C2=A0 I replaced the filter and still same thing.=C2=A0 Oh BTW there w=
as no fuel underneath as is the case when a float needle is stuck and fuel =
comes out the overflow.=C2=A0 No fuel shows up anywhere.

Why does the pump continue to click so fast?????=C2=A0 Why does it NOT slow=
 to an occasional click?????=C2=A0 What is the fix????=C2=A0 I am flustered=
.
