| Description of the problem | Vehicle stalled on morning drive to work. Over 1/4 tank of gas according to gas gauge. Had vehicle towed to auto repair where they determined it was a failed fuel pump. When the removed the gas tank to replace the fuel pump the mechanic said there was very little gas in the tank. They replaced the fuel pump and charged me $736. 00. When they tested the original fuel pump, it operated below the manufacturers specifications. The mechanic stated that trying to restart the engine with little gas in the tank (faulty gas gauge) caused the original fuel pump to overheat. |
