so my dad has a 2001 chevy CC with the 8.1L (496BB) vortech motor. (i want to get it and spray a 200 shot :hmm:)
Anyway my parents are out on a 7 day cruise and will be back on the 27th. With out getting long winded my youngest brother is always getting in hot water and never has any repercussions for his actions, always gets off the hook. Well this time he has been driving around my mom and dads cars while there gone so he dont use up his gas. Well yesterday I see dads truck in front of the house with a tow strap on the front of it. I instantly know he broke something on DADS TRUCK!!
Well I go out today and start troubleshooting. It seems that the fuel pump has gone out on the truck. There is no "prime" sound happening when I cycle the key on. Also there is no fuel coming out of the Schroeder valve (no fuel psi).
My question is do I try and fix it before he gets back and so he has a way to get around when he gets back or let him deal with it once he gets back?
