I was out driving my 77 alfetta and all was well until I pulled over to take a phone call and then after sitting for about a half hour, she wouldn't start. So it's a spica car and always starts but now it's doing a couple of noteworthy things:
1) fuel pressure light comes on but does not go off
2) can't hear fuel pump run ning with ignition but it's noisy here so not sure if it is or not.
3) no fuel coming out of filter hose beside engine
4) car will start but runs as if on 1 cylinder and them dies-all the time fuel pressure light stays on
5) fuel gauge says an eighth of a tank but could be inaccurate
If out of gas, does fuel pump continue to run?
And where exactly is the pump on this car? In front of left rear wheel? And just one pump, correct?
What fuses, relays,etc.might cause the pump not to work?
Any help appreciated
