Fuel pump is the issue :-(

Thanks for all the feedback. I really appreciate it.

The car has been running fine.

I took the battery out to replace the fuel pump (which was a bit of a pain).

The old one had a bearing going bad, it would run then squeel occasionally.

The new pump is running and I jumpered around the relay ran it into a graduated cylinder and the volume seems good.

I don't have a pressure tester but it is about the only thing it can be at this point.

Before you say it, not it was not an OEM pump, it was a Carter. Should have know better.

Unless there is some sort of pump priming procedure I don't know about or something then it is just me being penny wise and pount foolish :-(

Thanks again
