I take it you got no warning signs like stumbling or poor acceleration in the days before it died?
Enjoyed your FP video - thanks for the link. I was surprised to see a bunch of screws that hold the pump assembly in place.
Nope no signs the FP was going out at all. All though now it does seem too run a bit smoother. It didn't seem terrible before but sometimes
if it hit lift it just seemed weak. Now lift hits harder. So i'm guessing the FP was weak but in just normal driving it was barely adequate so I never really thought it was going bad.
The pumps life was probably shortened do to the fact the previous owner drove it 4k miles in like 3 years so the gas was always bad in the tank. It ran crappy on the test drive. Bought the car drove 2 miles to the gas station filled it up and it ran a million times better. So maybe the bad gas gummed up the pump a little over time?
