Hey guys.
Ka24-e Ford Corsair
Was going to a party in sydney and i got a powersteering leak, the flexable pressure hose permiated and got a weird leak. I fixed it with tape (its only gotta get me to nowra i have 2 wrecked pintaras for replacement parts.) I stopped at a servo at Bondi to get some powersteer fluid, just incase i started using it again but for now i had only lost 100ml and the tape had stemmed the flow to a slow weep.
When i tried to leave the servo the car wouldent start. it would kick over and die. I could not hear the fuel pump running. After a few starts it woudlent kick over, only crank.
With no tools ive decided the most likely thing at fault is the fuel pump.
I ran a tank of e10 through it and i suspect it broke down some shit form in the fuel tank and has caused the pump to fail. I noted the fuel pump fuse is fine and the relay still ticks on ign for 5-10 seconds. but i dont get any noise from the pump. I couldent test for voltage at the pump due to lack of tools but the pump is most likely the fault.
Will try and buy a new one if i have too, but as its 1am im not sure how available the pumps are. So just incase any of you guys can help me out with a second hand pump or direct me to where they may stock them it would be awesome.
I'll check this thread in the morning. IOU favour to anyone who can help sunday morning.
the car is at Bondi.
