Failed Fuel Pump?
I have an 1987 F-150 302EFI. It has been stalling on me over the past week. I went to start it last night, it started, then died. Tried to restart and when I turned the key on I listened for the fuel pump whine several times on each tank and heard nothing. The 1987 has duel tanks, with low pressure pumps in the tanks and a high pressure pump on the frame rail I believe. I was gonna replace the high pressure pump, but I want to be sure it is the problem. Any advise?
Thanks
Roger

No, I have not tried that, because I don't know how to deal with any electrical stuff, I currently have a call in to my personal mechanic for suggestions before spending the $$$. Thanks for some direction though.

You also may want to check the fuel tank selector valve, this controls the fuel from which tank it comes from, also controls which pump is pumping.
Also check your fuel shut off switch.

I have an 86 F150 that has been experiencing the same problems. It got to the point where I had to listen to the whine of the fuel pump before turning the engine over. I have replaced the High preasure pump many times and still seam to end up with the re-occuring problem. Is there an online schematic of the fuel system and the corresponding electrical parts?
