If the resistance is not as specified, replace the fuel pump.
B. Inspect fuel pump operation





Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 4 of the connector and the negative (-) lead to terminal 5. Check that the fuel pump operates.

NOTICE:
- These tests must be done quickly (within 10 seconds) to prevent the coil burning out.
