The fuel pump on newer fuel injected engines is located in the fuel tank. I too cannot find the fuel pump in my 1984 Lincoln Town Car. I thought mine was NOT fuel injected (withou a carb), but was assured by one of the "veiw nice" people at autozone, the even though I have a carb, it is still injected. Apparently, there are two round barrel looking objects mounted to the top of the carb. The barrel looking objects are the original {primitive} style of injectors, spraying the fuel into the carb. Using other's Q and A, found my filter, changed it, and still no banana. Removal of both fuel lines fro the back of the card, putting a larger hose over them into a clean one quart bottle, then cranking her up for a few beats, tells me it is not the presseure regulater also mounted on the top of the carb, since nothing came out of either of the fuel lines at the back of the carb at all. As well, I pulled back the carpeting in the trunck to look for this ellusive plate that one might remove to check the eletrical flow to the fuel pump. All I did find was a moduler plug-in to what I don't know since there was no trap door... Some mechanic friends have told me it may be in-line, others have suggested it it in the gas tank. MY main question is "Since I have the old original primitive fuel injection model, with only two injectors on the carb, two lines converging to one just before the filter. Where could my fuel pump be actuall located???" Pump is in the tank-check in the trunk first to see if the circuit breaker button popped somehow. This is located on my '85 on the left side by the trunk lid hinge. I just replaced the fuel pump on my '84 Town Car. It is located inside the gas tank itself. To get to the pump, drop the gas tank, and the pump is located on the back of the tank.
I am not sur of the cost if you have it professionally done, but I replaced the fuel pump in my 1984 Lincoln Town Car myself. The pump and strainer together only cost $118 if purchased from Auto Zone.
The fuel pump inertia switch is a MECHANICAL switch that " breaks " the electrical circuit to the electric fuel pump so that no power is going to the electric fuel pump
The fuel pump on a 2000 Lincoln Town Car is replaced by lowering the fuel tank, disconnecting the fuel lines, and unbolting the fuel pump. It can then be lifted from the tank and a new pump installed.
Check the fuel pump fuse and the fuel pump relay.
in the fuel tank
fuel pump is located in the gas tank.
It is inside the fuel tank on fuel injected models.
WHY DONT YOU JUST PULL THE FUSE TO THE FUEL PUMP
I think it's in the fuel tank because it is on a 1990 Lincoln town car
On a 1996 Lincoln Town Car : The ELECTRIC fuel pump is INSIDE the fuel tank ( the fuel tank is a vertical tank , behind the passenger rear seat , and the fuel pump is mounted in the side facing towards the rear seat )
On a 2003 Lincoln Town Car : The fuel pump shut off switch ( inertia switch ) is in the trunk , on the drivers side
On a 1996 Lincoln Town Car : The electric fuel pump is mounted INSIDE the fuel tank ( the fuel tank is a vertical tank behind the rear seat and the fuel pump is mounted in the side of the tank facing towards the rear seat )
