well i went out to work on the car today but the bat was dead and it was snowing.so i put the bat on charger,tryed to start it later but no go.then i put some gas down carb and it runs then stalls out.so i pull the pump out to try the one i got at j/y.when i get the pump out i find a piece of black silicone stuck in the pick-up tube,this was the pump w/o the strainer.so i'm thinking that what was making my car buck.
