My mechanic called and told me the bad news about my van. Fuel pump.

$850.

I'm going to buy a car from the '60s I can fix myself...

Maybe a Pontiac Tempest with the sland-4. I had one when I was 19 but blew the engine up.

Isn't it an Aerostar or something? A replacement pump is like $150, if it's just the jump. Replace it yourself.

Don't get the pump/sender assembly, just the pump.

Just don't forget to do a proper solder job on the wiring connections to the pump.

Windstar.

The problem is that I would have to drop the tank, which I cannot do.

I checked online and it says to only partly drop the tank. A fuel pump is only about $60. I supposed I could tow it to a friend's house and spend two days fixing it.
