[DML] Re: Fuel pump gets hot...

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Your fuel pump is dying. It's death was hastened by either a kinked
suction hose, dirty strainer, or a hole in the suction hose allowing
air to get in (any or all of the above). The thing to do now would be
to remove the pump, inspect all the internal parts in the tank,
replace any in deteriorated or questionable condition, and replace the
fuel pump. While you are in there you should drain the tank and wipe
it out to remove any trace of water or dirt.
