A few simple questions

[boostngsx]

My radiator light and battery light are always on. They are very dim. You cant even see them during the day. I know they can light normally because they do when I first start the car. But they are always on and only actually visible at night. Sorry no pic of it. Second question. The guy I bought my car from had taken it to a mechanic and was given a gasket to put in. All he told me was it was for the gas tank. Is this gasket for the sending unit? I'm not sure where it goes. My fuel pressure is low and I need to fix it.

Check your alternator and see if it needs to be replaced. That's EXACTLY what happened when my alternator was going.

Sorry, I'm not sure about the gasket, I don't know where it goes.

When you say your fuel pressure is low, do you mean that you can not bring the pressure up with the FPR? Is this why you will be changing the gasket, because you are changing the fuel pump?

Yea the fuel pressure will not go much past 20 psi. I am not sure if the pump is bad. But the guy I bought the car from said that gasket needed to be replaced. That's why im asking where it goes.

The gasket will not help your pressure. Your pump is going, or the FPR is bad!

He's right. I'm sure it's filthy as f**k. A car car being fuel deprived = low Fuel PSi. Luckily in this car it's a breeze to get at. Under the rear seat looking you in the face. Easier to get at when you have the Rear Seat Delete mod like me.

Well I got a new pump and haven't put it in. The FPR I bought used from a member on here. I hope it's good. But that gasket is for the sending unit?

Mine is in the trunk. It is easy to get at but the fuel lines are so rusty I cant get them to budge. I have all new -6 AN SS fuel lines waiting to go in.
