With it being the fuel pump now. My next question is, how much time do I have before my engine explodes? Finances are a little tight right now and my job requires me to have transportation. Is the pick and pull junk yard not the ideal place to pick one up cheap? Or should I be looking into a rental. Ultimately should I be driving it even minimal distance?

Hello,

I think it will be helpful if you can describe the issue(s) you are facing.

As the engine just doesn't simply explode.

You are mentioning a fuel pump issue. A faulty fuel pump will keep the engine from starting. But it will not damage the engine.

So, if you would please let me know more details of what you have been experiencing and any questions or concerns.

Thank you.
