My car is kind of pulsating sometimes at speeds all across the board. It is not drastic just noticeable & the car feels almost like the tranny is slipping but NOT that exact feeling... I know it well

Anyhow I was wondering what can be the signs of a bad fuel pump & can they be tested? Also how much do they run & how much cussing is involved in the procedure? Guess I'd like to see if I can test it 1st but any info is great. Thanks.

sounds like your fuel filter. its only $10 and a lot easier to change then the pump. switch it out and see if that does it. also, if your pump is making a loud hissing noise, then its probably your pump. if you need to know how to change it, just ask
