bad fuel pump?
I installed a new fuel pump one month ago in my 75 bronco and it was running fine. Yesterday I had it running while I was flushing the radiator. After running great for about 15 minutes it just stopped and won't start again. I pulled the fuel filter (it screws directly into the carb), and disconnected the hose. I cranked the engine and got no fuel from the line.
Any ideas what the problem might be to just stop like that and then get no fuel???

Were you running the tank low? Could be junk from the tank.... I would put a clear plastic canister filter between the tank and the carb somewhere and see what gets in there.... you can get them anywhere for a couple of bucks....
