Re: Fuel delivery problems

["Mark Madison" <markie@proaxis.com>]

the pump is under heavy load and it heats up and starts to pump poorly
can be several things.

clogged filter crap in the fuel lines etc etc.
or perhaps the pump is just old and going bad.

there is a small pump in the tank... this could be going bad..
pull the fuel guage sender out.. clean up the transfer pump... check to see
if it even works.

driving for about 2 minutes or so, the rear pump will start getting rather
loud.  While it's making all it's noise, the car will bog down when pressing
the gas more than about halfway.  It's acting like it's clogged or
something.  I changed out the rear filter, but no luck.  Any ideas?  Is
there some kinda regulator back there?  Please don't tell me it's inside the
gas tank.  Is there a possibly that the front filter could be clogged
causing the rear pump to work harder?
