DaveT Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 My 92 Loyale didn't want to start the other day. A shot of carby cleaner in the intake got it going. Off to run errands. 3 or 4 stops later, no start. It will run on the carby cleaner for a second or so. Luckily, the guys at the plumbing supply house had a few tools around, so I got the pump where I could see it. Knocked on it a few times with a screwdriver handle, got in and it started right up. Decided to shut down, and use a piece of wire to hold the mounting plate up, in case it quit on the way home. No start. Knock on the pump, started up. Got home. Called NAPA. They want over $300.00 for a pump! What is it made out of? Gold? Started this evening, of course, when trying to duplicate the problem. I have 2 older pumps (both run, no pressure test yet) and the part of the harness that has the power connector on it so I won't get stuck... Anyone have any alternatives?

GeneralDisorder Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 The 90's Ford Ranger's had a pump that will work - do a search for it on here. Apparently you want the one that is mounted on the frame rail, not in the tank. Frankly tho, the pumps are pretty tough - junk yard pumps can be had cheaply.
