Hey Brendan, Not sure if your 95 is the same as my 97, however it is typically the FSU which is part of the Fuel Pump that is not working. The pump screws into the top of the tank. You can access the unit by pulling up your carpet in the back cargo space, you will see it there. You might try just cleaning out the 2 electrical connectors that are plugged into the pump first. Otherwise, try Nathan at DiscountRovers, he usually has them in stock for a good price. |

Can you also pull the fuel pump out this way? Just wondering because my pump is making a strang noise and I was thinking to replace it. I would have to pull the fuel tank down to reach the fuel pump, let me know if that's not the case. |

Yes, you can remove the fuel pumps on the Disco 1 (not sure about DiscoII) easily. Just remove the trim piece and pull back the carpet about a foot. Depressurize the fuel system, and then just remove the fuel connections and electric connection. Unscrew the ring and pull the pump out. Be careful when pulling the pump out to not drip gas or bend the sensor. |

Thanks for the info. I had a pump replaced about 30K ago (OEM part) so I will clean the contacts and see what happens. B.K. |
