Something is wrong with your keyboard too.

Fuel pumps are pretty cheap, you might as well just swap it and see what happens. If the problem is dependant on the fuel level in the tank, it's probably going to be the pump, the sending unit, or the siphon that moves fuel from one side of the tank to the other. The Siphon only applies to AWD saddle tanks however, and you didn't mention WTF kind of car you are refering to, so I'm not sure if that applies in your case.

What he really means is your grammer sucks and you need to put your car in your sig or at least give us a hint to what kind of car your driving. Let me know Kevin if I'm wrong on that one.

Ok I feel bad for saying that, sorry newbie. This apology was not influenced by anyone or anything, I just felt bad afterwards.

Re: fuel pump??

I feel bad sometimes too. On one hand I figure when people first come to the forum they think is an AOL chat room or something, and just aren't aware of our higher standards. But on the other hand, I wonder how poeple that put so little effort into something so simple actually make it through life at all.
