Welcome back:

The first picture show the wire color at the coil. The next two shows where they go. The last picture shows the plug and letters identify each plug. You can see the letters on the schematic to identify color.

Let me know

Welcome back:

We have access to online manuals. There are two we use, Alldata and Mitchel 1. They are both excellent and used by most shops and dealerships.

Oh I have heard of Alldata a few times. Great, I might look into that.

So I got a set of snap rings today. Got the new if ignition coil and connector on as well. Everything seems to work fine but I was unable to test drive it tonight. Will let you know how it works out.

Also the slide hammer got here today Long with the new drive belt and tensioner pulley. Once I put them on along with the new wheel hub and bearings I will update you

The fuel pump works fine and great, but I noticed one thing tonight and this is what I was afraid of. The fuel gauge doesn't work now and I'm sure I know the problem. The lever arm (float or whatever it's called) is too long. I still have the old fuel pump at the house to compare it to. I was thinking of bending it to shorten it and get it closer to the shape of the original fuel pump. Is that a good idea? One of my friends told me if I do that the gauge might not be accurate. Let me know what you think. I might just leave it and ride it out like it is.

Wow you aren't having much luck. If you change it and it is too short or longer than it should be, it may throw off the fuel gauge reading. The float is attached to what is called a rheostat. Basically, it is a resister that as the float chances level, it allows more or less power to be sent. If it isn't accurate as far as the float position, the gauge will be wrong.

Are you able to switch the float on the two?

Lol I know right. Not very lucky so far.

I will try and see if I can get the float off of the original. Hopefully it will fit.

Thanks Joe.

Hey Joe,

I wanted to ask. What is a 'Cut Off Assembly's in reference to the fuel pump picture I showed you?

Thanks

Hey Joe,

I figured everything out. I got the wrong fuel pump it seems. The one I took off the car has two openings at the top while the other has one. I thought I could just disconnect the cut off assembly and run it like that but I was so wrong, lol. Lots of gas came out from the hose leading from the cut off assembly.

I took pictures to show you the difference on them.

Do you know where I can buy the correct fuel pump assembly? I have looked everywhere and cannot find it. Some help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Joe.

Welcome back:

I just jumped on AutoZone's site. Here is what I found. See picture 1.

Not a cheap one is it.

Doesn't have two spouts like the original. Seems there's no way I can find that fuel pump assembly.

Can you get just a pump and install it into your fuel module?

I switched the pump from the new fuel pump assembly I bought into my original fuel pump assembly.

I went to remove the wheel bearing and noticed it doesn't look the same as what was in the manual I have. I think this might have been converted from a 4-wheel drive to a two wheel drive.

So I totally give up. I'm done Joe, lol.

It came as an assembly. So hub and bearings already together.

The pictures are below.

No I have not tested the pump as yet.

Is the serpentine belt being too short a common thing? This has happened to me twice now. This can't be a coincidence.

Trying to put on the new belt and it seems to be too short.
Wanted to get it on to sell the car.

No, that isn't common. Compare its length to the original one you removed. It sounds like they sold you the wrong one.

Ugh. Well the one I have on now should do then. I still don't see why the tensioner pulley is rattling. It's brand spankin' new.

Also, the fuel pump works.

Glad to hear the pump is working. Good job. As far as the belt, I'm not sure what to say. It really should fit properly.
