The end result of this was about the fuel pump connector, which there's a current recall for. OP should check that out before replacing things.

Recall for the fuel pump connector or the fuel pump itself?

You just called to tell them your problem? Did they tell you to come in so they can diagnose it themselves?

Nanniepoo 06-20-2017 05:26 PM

RI-X5 06-20-2017 05:29 PM
