Q: We're is the fuel pump located on 1986 buick regal
Need to find were my fuel pump is located
My car has an automatic transmission.
The fuel pump on your vehicle should be a mechanical pump that is mounted on the side of the engine. It should be near the front of the block, near the water pump.There are some Regal models that will use a electric fuel pump that is mounted inside the fuel tank, but the information that I’m finding shows that your vehicle with the 5.0 liter engine should have the mechanical pump. It will get mounted to the side of the engine with 2 mounting bolts, and have 2 (or possible 3) fuel lines that run to it. If you feel you could use a hand in locating/repairing the fuel pump, contact a certified mechanic, like the mobile mechanics available at YourMechanic.com.
