Overheated Fuel Pump
I ran my car out of gas because the fuel sensor was broken. It ran to 508 miles on that tank and that is how I usually knew. After I got it refilled It started fine but next day trouble began starting it. It had a hard time idling but it seemed to run OK. On the the third day I actually could not start it in the evening and I run 100 miles day. Took it in and they claimed my fuel pump was putting out low pressure. Together with my fuel sensor and a new fuel filter it came to $1061 of which about $400 was labor. I am suspicions but is it plausible that a fuel pump can overheat from running it out of fuel. That was the claim the House of Muffle and Brakes gave me.
I would appreciate your opinion at [email protected]. -- Thanks,

Yes it can overheat and blow the whole car up. The house of muffle?
Its the fuel in the tank that cools the pump. So not good when you run it out or low.
