I agree with Simon. Bad in-tank pumps give you problems when your below a half or quarter of a tank. They also give you problems when making sharp turns or going up/down steep hills. Since it is a wagon you should have no problem getting to the in-tank pump & fuel tank floater assembly. Make sure that once you confirm that the in-tank pump needs to be replaced and you start to remove it from the tank you keep the area clear of dirt, gunk, and any other crap you do not want falling into the gas tank. I was able to change the in-tank pump on my 79 262C in about 1 hour. I had to clamp the newer style in-tank pump to the old style floater assembly, replace the hose coming from the intake fuel pump, and testing the wires that run the in-tank fuel pump and fuel gauge. It was a very rewarding expierance and a lot of fun once it was all done. Good Luck!
Sincerely,
