    Ive read quite a few threads about fuel pumps going
    So question from me 87 golf k jet

    1.Should you hear the pump prime b4 you start the engine

    2.When i have had the fuel lines off the fuel doesnt come out with much force more a dribble

    3.With a pressure tester how can you tell if its the pump at fault or the accumalator

    4.When you come off the laughter pedal the car will jump forward is that a sign of the accumilater being knackered its like this when going at high speed like starvation but could this just be me or worn inner joints

    5.The fuel filter is new btw

    6.It does accelerate up to speed but does seem to struggle at the top

    If i have to i will buy whats needed
