New parts install gone bad

Spending a week under the car with gas in my brain cells, it appears the $400 fuel pump is shot before i could get out of the driveway. Also the electric fan stopped working and the engine is stumbling...........it never ends..

Seriously the pump is dead, and I;m not too thrilled about it. Tim is no longer into buicks, I'm told.

I'm betting, just as an experiment, you turned the voltage up on it...and fried it.

Fuel Pump replacement

Norbs
It never ends! Plus your saving gas with it in the garage. So your saving the environment. I just finished putting a new crank in, so in retrospects a fuel pump doesn't sound that bad.
Good luck with your car, as for Brad wanting your car. He could only dream. Him and his buddy Dan can only try to build a car as nice as yours. When it's finished I'm sure it will join the 9 second club.
