Hi All,
This is what I learned today trying to test the electric fuel pump. I turned the ignition on and let the electric fuel pump run without the engine running for about 20 minutes. I wanted to see if the pump would fail on it's own for no apparent reason or if it would stop if it got to hot. It did neither. It ran the whole 20 minutes, it did get warm and even a bit hot but not so hot that I couldn't put my hand on it. Next I took the car out for a spin around the block/country roads, when the electric fuel pump shut off I pulled over quickly and put my hand on the pump, it was cool to the touch. I turned the car back on, it fired back up, and the electric fuel pump was running fine. I now think it is the oil pressure safety switch as one of you told me before. I need to eliminate it from the circuit and try it again. I'll update this post once I figure out how to do that. Thanks for all the advice, I really appreciate it!
