My Prowler (1999) did exactly that - stalled with 1/4 tank of fuel...so I thought. I had it towed (yikes!) only to discover that it was out of gas. The fuel sender went bad, requiring the replacement of the pump assembly. That addressed the problem, but led to the saga of problems I am still dealing with now. You may read more about that on the other thread in the Technical Discussion section if you are so inclined: http://www.prowleronline.com/ubb/Forum2/HTML/005137.html This message has been edited by drbutton on 12-16-2014 at 04:10 PM |

quote: I was warned about this nearly two years ago, when I replaced my fuel pump with a stock unit. Just in the past 2 days, the Prowler will start, then die after a second or so. Is this the early sign of fuel pump failure predicted by 1of1576? |

drbutton, An easy way to check if the fuel pump is the problem is to rent a pressure gauge from your local parts store. There is a Scrader valve in the center of the top of the engine. Connect gauge to that port. Start engine and observe the pressure reading, shut engine off, the residual pressure should remain. If the gauge drops to zero the blue seal in the fuel pump is probably bad. Unfortunately this seal does not come with the Walbro replacement pump. However, you can purchase a fuel pump assembly for a Town & Country to obtain the seal. There are other threads showing how to accomplish this. |

Turn the key ON but not to START (don't crank the starter) and wait about 10 seconds so the pressure builds up and see if that cures it. |

Doc, Agree with PGPG42. Put a fuel pressure guage on it. Should be 50-60 running, then maintain pressure when shut off with very slow bleed off of pressure (hours). Idive (Mickey) had a crankshaft sensor that went bad that had symptoms similar to yours, only ran a few seconds. So check the pressure first then search about crank sensor. Hope this helps. |

Did the fuel pump mod on Saturday with the Walboro pump. Went fairly easily except for the pin connectors. Cut the blade connectors off and crimped the new pin connectors to only find out they are just a size too big. Of course we did not figure this out until we installed it and it would not fire. Had to pull the pump back out after we did a continuity test at the plug and found none. Once out we had to crimp the pins to make them fit as well as putting a very small piece of metal in the connector to insure they would continue to make contact. Put it back in and she fired right up. |
