Fuel Pump Fails to Prime Intermittently

Accidentally posted this to the wrong forum, I think, but don’t want to duplicate the post.

If it is a bad winding in the fuel pump motor.
Next time it fails to prime, using a rubber hammer, hit the bottom of the tank a few times then see if the pump then primes.
If it does, you’ll need a new fuel pump.

That makes sense! I’ll try it. These intermittent electrical problems are the worst…

Thanks!
