I had a datsun with a fuel pump that intermittently stopped working. It would die while I was driving down the road and would be working when the mechanic checked it out (of course).

I have checked the plug for a good connection.

If everything checks out at the plug then would it be safe to assume that I should install a whole new pump assembly ?
