Re: [FWDLK] Fuel Pump...

[Garrett <TheBulkster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to all who have replied so far...

I haven't made any progress on this situation yet as last night I began 
having fuel-pump related issues in my main ride (95 Caprice).  There's 
really nothing significant to report here aside from the irony of the whole 
situation.  Perhaps this is a sign I look for a closer job where I can ride 
a bike to work.

There are actually a few other similarities between both cars right now as 
well, but in short neither of them work.

Another question about my Dodge.  Since I drained (siphoned) most/all of the 
old gas out of the tank, but there is still some in the actual fuel line, is 
there an easy way to drain this (disconnect fuel line from pump and will it 
drain back into the tank)?  I've been meaning to ask.

Thanks,
Garrett
