I took off my old fuel pump and now want to install the new one. The little rod that I need to make sure is up inside the the motor where the pum inserts is down. I was told to bump the motor to raise it so I can install the pump. So bumping the motor didnt work. I turn the key but dindt let it start up basically. What else can I try to get the rod up so I can install the new pump?

How do I do that? The lower belt not connected to the alernator should be the one turning the crank right? So I will need to take the belt off and everything in the way until I get to the bare block? Once I remove the plates or belt wheels I should see a bolt or something that I can turn?

When a fuel pump goes out it can do so one of two ways either it can quit and stop working or it can fail intermittently causing the engine to stall or not start.
