Feul Pump Change

Post by 74SpyderGates »

I would like to share with everyone.
Finally got my in-line fuel pump. Just finished instaling it. Made sure all the connections were new and all the grounds were good.
Before instaling the pump, I blew some air into the feul hose(found in the trunk that leads to the fuel filter) I disconnected the bottom part of the hose from the feul filter. I put the disconected part of the hose in a plastic container in order to collect any feul that would be blown out. I'm glad I did that, there was some dirty fuel in the line.

The car started after I primed the fuel a few times. It was reving very low. It stalled a few times. Felt like it was chocking if I would try to give gas during the low rev.

Once it was warmed-up it ran nice.
I will try starting it up again tomorrow. If it does the same thing, I'm not sure what it can be.
Although I've noticed that my distrabuter has only one condenser and one points contact. I believe I should have 2.

If anyone can help it would be great!!!
