Re: Fuel pump noises(?)

[William J Erikson <williamjosiah@juno.com>]

Mine always makes an audible noise. Sortof a buzzing humming kindof
thing. If it doesn't do that, try jumping terminals 30 and 87 of the fuel
pump relay on the fuse box with a wire and see if that makes the fuel
pump run.
	Good luck!
