    make sure everything is tight... it could be sucking air

    The fuel pumps are about $43.00 each, and the gaskets are around $2.00. You can change them yourself. the fuel pumps are held on by 2 5mm hex head bolts. to get to the top pump, you have to move the vaper seperator out of the way.

    Don't overtighten the fuel pumps because they can leak.
