Last week I posted about my wifes fuel pump problems on her 94 D1. It just died on us I replaced a fuse even tho' it looked ok and it started and ran fine. Today we took off for the store - "snow day" yeeeeha! - and the same thing happened but this time no luck on getting it re started.

Before I put down $200 for a new pump what else should I have our mechanic check? He is going to run a current check on it to see what it is drawing and I told him to check the grounding as well.

Anything else?

TIA

I have a 96 and had the same problem. It will start then die couple days later. If you have not replace your pump since 94, I will just change it for a piece of mind.

I am sure someone will disagree with me.

If you don't hear a muffled buzzing noise from your fuel tank then your pump is probably not working. I would have the mechanic check the fuel pump pressure just to be sure. Mine runs a steady 34 lbs with the engine running at idle.

When is the last time the fuel filter was replaced?
