'90 245 no start, no pump sound after jumping fuse 4 and 6 left contacts 200 1990


"So it would start and run repeatedly without a good in-tank pump? The hard initial start was just the new (old) main priming the system?"

Yes - after some cranking the main pump would run the car seemingly fine although it would sometimes take a little more cranking to turn it over.

I drove it around the city here and there on this condition while waiting for my in-tank pump to arrive from FCP - probably not a good idea due to potentially wearing out my new (old) main pump faster. I'm definitely gonna have to watch for premature failure of my newly installed pumps. But I am back on the road now. We'll see how long it lasts!
