Went to the office for a couple of minutes this morning. Came out, got in, started normally. About a mile down the road, going up a grade, everything died, sputtering, nursed it along until I could safely get it over to the side. Fuel filter almost empty. No more fuel being pulled in. Looks like another short downtime.

Oh. I didn't mention that this was in a driving rain storm. Great Saturday Morning.

Same thing just happened to me. Wife towed me back home 7 miles on dirt roads with a 15 foot tow rope. THAT was exciting! Turned out my tank has plenty of varnish from sitting for 20 years and the varnish clogged my electric pump filter. I imagine it will happen a few more times at least, so I carry my tools and spare filter. Good luck. Victor.

It must be in the weather , I just posted this . The fuel pump from a RX-7 that is NOT INJECTED works great I got mine from a '79 . $15.00 but be sure that the RX was not injected most important. :classic:

I don't know what the hell happened, but the fuel system checked out fine and it starts without problem now. :classic: Oh well , got a badly pulling right rear brake drum turned, so I can now hit my brakes without fear of swinging in to the lane to the right of me.

Sounds exactly like my clogged fuel line problem. Disconnect your hose and have a look inside them for crap.

I just had the same problem on the way to work this morning, the car starting running like a bag of s#$t then toatally stopped. i got out, quickly checked over the fuel system, everything looked ok, it started up fine and i drove it the rest of the way. what the hell is going on???

Dirty fuel tank, clogged fuel line, tired fuel pump, dirty fuel filter, dirt in a carb...???

possibly all of the above, i might have some bad electics in the fuel pump as its only starting playing up during all this constant rain weve been having in sydney this week
