Re: Contact Points?

A bad fuel pump in an '89 1500 will not trigger any codes. Just give you potential hard start or poor running (lack of power). And after 270,000 miles......Check the pressure or just swap it, in my opinion, your on borrowed time with it.

Change it...you are LUCKY it is running at all with a pump that has almost 300K on it!!! And as the previous posts stated, No OBD1 will not trigger a code for a fuel delivery problem, and it is FAR from perfect......OBD2 is far from perfect, IMHO

You are damm rigth about that. ODB 2! what a joke the only thing they accomplish is making sure you don't pass emmissions test. while we are on this subject What would you do if you had a 98 k1500 that cost you $33,000 and won't pass it's 6 year smog test, but GM mechanics cant find problem after three different dealer's? Now you got a truck with 87,000 miles that looks great but is useless because you can't get it registered or insured.And over $700 in troubleshooting that didn't find a damm thing.
