[Rovernet] Fuel Pump NADA 3500s

[Kent Kinard]

Hi Rob,
The pump is a garden variety Bendix pump.  The problem is probably not 
the pump and is more likely the pickup in the tank or the reserve 
petcock.  The pickup has it's own fine mesh filter which can get 
clogged.  Unlike the 2000, the NADA 3500S reserve petcock is located 
near the tank.  If the long actuating cable slips or breaks, the petcock 
can get stuck in the "halfway" position and limit fuel feed.  these two 
items rarely get serviced since they are a pain to get to and get out.
Good luck.
Roverly,
Kent K.

I have separated the line prior to the front filter in the engine bay.  Have fuel in the tank (added 4 gallons to be sure).  I an fairly certain that it does not have another filter under the car but I will double check prior to replacement.
