FUEL PUMP INSPECTION





1. INSPECT FUEL PUMP RESISTANCE
Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between a terminals 4 and 5.

Resistance: 0.2 - 3.0 Ohms at 20°C (68°F)

If the resistance is not as specified, replace the fuel pump, lead wire or fuel pump bracket.





2. INSPECT FUEL PUMP OPERATION
Connect a tester lead from terminal 4 of the connector to the positive (+) terminal of the battery; connect another tester lead from terminal 5 of the connector to the negative (-) terminal of the battery.

NOTICE:
- These tests must be performed quickly (within 10 seconds) to prevent the coil from burning out.
- Keep the fuel pump as tar away from the battery as possible.
- Always connect or disconnect at the battery. If operation is not as specified, replace the fuel pump, lead wire or fuel pump bracket.
