Heading out to a concert yesterday afternoon and made it about 25 miles before the car died on the interstate. Merging from one interstate to another the engine starting sputtering going up the crossover ramp, loosing power as I went. Engine completely shut off by the time I hit the entrance ramp and we coasted to a stop along the shoulder.
Tried cranking and cranking, and it seemed like it wasn't getting fuel. The tank was full. I have in my car the new DMCH combo fuel pump / fuel sender unit that was installed in the summer of 2015. Noticed on the dash that all of the gauges worked EXCEPT the fuel gauge. It read zero. I'm assuming that since the gauge didn't read anything that would indicate no power going to the pump / fuel sender. I checked the fuse and it was fine. I checked the inertia switch and it was fine. The only thing I haven't done is physically check the electrical connections at the pump. Kinda hard to do on the side of the road with trucks whizzing by at 80 mph. Will take the trunk apart this weekend to verify the connection and put an electrical tester on the connectors to see if I've got power.
This "new pump" has roughly 11k miles on it since installed in 2015. Any other suggestions as to what I can look for?
