car broke again

[Jack_John_Mark]

I'd also like to know how irule came to thee conclusion that it's the fuel pump en sech.

"Well first I checked to see if the keys were in the ignition and they were. So then I honked the horn and it honked. Plus RA pretty much sounds smart and he mentioned it would be a fuel pump."

 

[iruletheskool]

Naw gramps helped me out too, blew up in thar

 

[Red_Alert]

Does gramps have a nice big heated garage for ye?

 

[iruletheskool]

No

 

[Red_Alert]

Oh well. At least it's not gonna be 5 degrees en sech.

Actually gonna be a fairly warm weekend to get it done if you have to do it outside (considering its mid Dec)

 

[NE1tm2nv]

Wat.





FYI: its a fuel pump issue, new problem is apparently its impossible to get at the fuel pump on a 03 grand am.. experts, pls tell me how to fix myself

Cut a hole in the Trunk pan..

That'll make easy access for the next time...


Honest to gawd, A friend of mine did that to his suburban....

I've heard of people doing that. It's like when stage 4 beater sets in. aka Rust Bucket. Chances are good one of the doors, a fender, or the hood are not the same color as the rest of it.

LOL at making sparks around a gas tank.

Actually, no not at all, it's a very nice well kept vehicle. He's put 3 fuel pumps in that sumbitch, I don't know if he or his kids run the thing out of gas regularly or what, he just got tired of pulling the tank.

I think the last time he did it the tank was full, so I could understand his frustrations, manipulating a full gas tank would be a bastage.

He did a good job with fab work, made a plate to cover the hole, sealed it with silicone and put the carpet back over it. You wouldn't know without him tellin' ya bout it.

That's a very common way for a lot of 3rd and 4th gen camaro owners to change their pumps also. I actually did that on my 90 camaro when I still had it. The guy who bought it from me didn't believe me either until I showed him. Just a lot easier way if the interior of the vehicle allows for it.

If I was you I'd sell that piece of shit as soon as you get the new pump in, irule.

Go get yourself something reliable.

 

[HawkeyeHater]

Reliable is only a guess... Every make and model has their lemons

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Buick Park Ave.

You'll go forever in one of them.

That 3.4L engine built by GM is known world wide for being one of the worst ever.

I've had 2 vehicles with that pop can of an engine in 'em.

 

[Red_Alert]

What's the story, irule?

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

"Today I bought some Jack like you told me to. But I still can't figure out what Whiskey has to do with any of this. Anyways, Grandpa blew some more air up in there today." - stool

 

[iruletheskool]

standing by until tomorrow.. took longer to find a spot close with a flat drive


got her started, but ran outta time


dam holidays en sech

 

[corn train]

Knock off that car mess and get yourself a truck man, make sure it's 4x4, you'll not want to be stuck with only vag mode when you see a real good 4x4 time awaits

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

irule is finally gonna get this pump switched out and then it's still not gonna work
