Subject:      Is it the fuel pump?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

hola amigos,

My '89 syncro camper and I were driving one night
when:

1) We incurred two offroad hits to the underplating
2) There were heavy rains
3) The engine then bogged down and completely shut
down
4) I could start it fine, but after 30 seconds it
would die
5) RI rplaced the record holding dirty fuel filter
6) The engine then bogged down and died after 1 minute
7) A gent with a tool kit adjusted the distributor and
the flat adjustment screw right there, and I was able
to get home. He said the fuel pump had no pressure.

I stopped driving it, until I get this resolved. It
runs terrible warming up and is set to idle at 1200
rpm, at which speed its able to smooth out (somewhat).

Any ideas?

Gracias, Ron
