Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / Maintenance and Repair / June 2006fuel pump flow rate?
'99 Cavalier 2.2, port injected. Engine catches, but dies immediately. I suspect it's a fuel problem. What sort of 'free' flow rate should I get, with an open line just dumping into a container? Thanks, Geoge > '99 Cavalier 2.2, port injected. Engine catches, but dies immediately. > I suspect it's a fuel problem.

It could flow great with the line disconnected, but fail to flow when the line is pressurized. If you're an automotive last-step-of-the-food-chain fellow like me, a fuel-injection pressure guage is a great investment, as it'll get a fair bit of use. Dave |
