hey this is off topic and i'm really sorry about that but it's sort of an emergency and i don't know anyone to ask and i'm familiar with this site ahh okay
i just got a 4x4 97 chevy silverado half ton and i have to make a trip from texas to florida in it really soon, the problem or potential problem is this...
the fuel pump is buzzing, this means i have to get it fixed. bad news cause apprently 97' fuel pumps and after have all these different parts and it costs a lot of money to fix it, 500-700 dollars according to a mechanic on the phone.
so my question is this... could i make it to florida? how long do these things buzz before your car decides to stop working? at least usually or in your experience. could i probly make it?
the car is in super good condition its got 90,000 miles but it hasn't been driven hard or anything like that everything under the hood looks liek a brand new car everythings new and clean looking still.
and if i shouldn't try to make the trip, is this something i could fix on my own to save money? is it easy to mess up? is it hard to figure out?
i don't want to have to wing it but that may wind up the case cause i'm broke as a joke after buying the friggin truck.
any help is greatly appreciated and i'm sorry for posting about a non-bronco related subject. thanks for any help
