This is an interesting subject. Sometimes when I drive my '88 and I "floor it" it seems to act as if it's not quite getting enough fuel and then it picks up again in a second or two. Could that be a sign of the fuel pump going bad?
It's the original pump with 80K miles. Is that about the average life span of an electric fuel pump?
