Hi I'm new so easy, I trying to put back together a mistreated 76 280z.

fuel pump was not working so I tried to take it off and broke the wire conections to the pump. I'm sure the pump is done ,but how should i check. If it is good how can I fix it .If its gone what should i replace it with?

Thanks

If the pump is shot , you just need to replace it . there is no fixing it. You need a injector rated pump. Your local parts store should be able to help you out. Unless you can find one in a bone yard.

What part of the wire broke I think they have studs coming out. I have taken mine apart and got them working. If you take the pump end off make sure you match mark everything so you know exactly how it goes back together. It may have junk in it and just need cleaning. I have one here that is intact but doesn't work too well.

I think you would have better luck in the long run with something like this:

My personal experience with Ebay is horrible when it comes to parts that cannot be easily assessed from a photograph. Remember, it is on Ebay, it is used and there is no way to know how serviceable the part is until AFTER you receive the part. By then it is too late.
