    1997 7.4l - At my wits end with an irregular miss.

    I don't know how it is with our cars, but I've never had any problems unscrewing and reattaching drive shafts, regardless of the position. Drive shafts are usually balanced, but only internally, not in connection with the differential or the transmission where they are bolted. It's more likely...

    So after dismantling half the car to protect it from rust, I've finally got around to putting everything back together. The tank is in, the fuel pump is running, the connections are tight. I was able to drive it again for the first time. Thanks again to everyone for the help.

    Success. I have the rusty rest of the fuel pump out of the connectors. Took me 3 hours, love, patience and a lot of different tries. And I connected the new fuel pump, and started the truck. Fuel pump runs and the truck cranks, fuse is still ok. So problem is identified and mostly solved...

    I had three quick connectors that were completely rotten and one that I was able to save after spraying them and handling them carefully. But on two of the connectors, the fuel pump pipe is so thin and rusted that I have nothing left to grab onto, so I don't think I can remove them. I've soaked...

    I use Fluid Film and Permafilm to protect the car. That has the advantage, that you have a fluid material under the coating, so that when the coating gets cracks it does not really bring problems. I have very good experience with that material in the past decades. But since 2 years when I...

    Thank you very much, that helps a lot. I will check today where I can purchase these in Germany.

    Thank you very much for your help anyway. It gave me the crucial clues. I haven't really solved the problem yet, because the wiring harness looks OK and the fact that petrol leaked from the petrol pump shouldn't have caused an electrical fault. But since the fault hasn't occurred since I pulled...

    My car is a European model and was delivered directly to Germany. Fortunately, the underbody of my car was protected against corrosion early on and is in relatively good condition. But they probably didn't do anything to the fuel pump. I'm annoyed because I've wanted to do the underbody for...

    The pump is out, but now I have the problem that two connections can no longer be removed. Does anyone know if these connections are available separately or do I have to buy the hose separately?

    I have removed the tank. Looks crazy. Harness seems to be ok... Now I try to open the ring from the fuel pump...

    I guess I have found the problem. I pulled the fuel pump relay and now the fuse stays and the truck cranks... I will swap the fuel pump, then I will see what's happen.

    I had checked concerning the fuse box. Looks all normal without moisture or green crust...

    I swapped the PCM from the buddy, but as soon when I switch on ignition the PCM B fuse blows. @rockola1971 I will look on on the information of your last post, later .. Thank you very much for your help...
