Fuel pump leaking
Before the season ended the fuel pump on my F4 was was dripping fuel the "overflow" line. The pump still pumps but fuel comes out of this "overflow" line. Is there a fix for this or in my pump busted up on the inside or something ?
Are you refering to the line that comes from the tank? There is a vent line and an overflow line that come from the gas tank itself.
Or is there a line that comes directly from your fuel pump that is leaking?
If it is from your pump. then your probably going to need to buy a new pump. Generally with pumps of any kind, they have weap holes that will leak as the bearing begins to fail in the pump. Its a diagnosis tool built in to keep you from being stranded. If it were me. I'd probably just buy a used on ebay. You could probably buy a kit and rebuild it, but depending on how bad the bearing got, you may not be able to rebuild it... and cost wise, Im sure just buying a used one will be cheaper and easier.
