Humming in the rear & hesitation......
Hey guys! I have a hesitation under hard acceleration and with inspection I found a pretty loud humming on the fuel pump side of gas tank. Car stutters a little when idling sometimes too!
Is there a way to test the f. pump without just replacing it? Any suggestions? Thanks 86 951 Zermatt silver |

Sounds like your fuel pump is going out.
If you have a Haynes manual, it details how to check fuel pump operation without removing it. AFJuvat

Clogged fuel filter?
Could this problem be related to a really clogged fuel filter? That would make the fuel pump work quite hard, and would cause hesitation and such. It would also probably wear out the fuel pump after a while.
