A rather boring honk, but it should be loud and clear.

It should work with key on or off....

Strange... Seems like a fuel pressure test pedal down gauge taped to the windshield would have revealed insufficient pressure / blockage of fuel flow enrichment.

Glad you got it runnin'...

The filter was replaced with the fuel pump. It's only about a month old.

Thanks! My fuel pressure gauge did show a huge drop in pressure at idle. Giving it gas would not make a difference.

I've never seen a broken fuel filter before!

Well it turns out my fuel filter was the culprit. Something inside broke and when under pressure blocked the line. Again thanks for everyones help!


Thanks for the update! Good to know the solution to problem for future reference.

I agree! I hate when people don't follow up in their thread with the solution.
