my 66 230 did a strange thing today. Driving with the top down in the sunshine, (car hadn't been used for weeks so thought I would give it a quick drive.) Started perfectly, drove for a few miles, just thinking everything was going really well... then it just died. - slight splutter then engine just stopped.
I fiddled around about and got it going again. Not sure if it was the distributer wires (which were a bit loose ) or thinking it could be the electric fuel pump. I don't believe it has ever been replaced. Cant find anything in the cars history about the pump.
Anyone had experience of a faulty pump - IE: do they tend to go or stop, but not intermittent (assuming the wiring is good)
Is a rebuild easy? or would you suggest a total replacement/exchange? Don't mind having a go at the rebuild but sometimes it isn't worth trying because of rebuild could be too fiddly. I believe its a short pump kit I would need.
Suggestions please.
