Does a 1985 2.8 liter Chevy S10 Blazer have 2 fuel pumps? Both A Mechanical one attached to the side of the engine, and an electric one housed in the fuel tank? Would it have one or the other or both at the same time?

I know mine has one on the side of the engine but I was wondering if it was possible that there may be one in the fuel tank too.

Ive owned two other vehicles previous to this on that were mid to late 80s and they both had two fuel pumps, but they werent chevys im kinda having a small get up n go issue so this is why i am asking. when it was the same problem in my other vehicles it was due to One of the fuel pumps failing.

no the s10 does not have two fuel pumps. 85 will be carberated with a mechanical pump on the side of the block the other vehicle must be a ford they are the only vehicle i know of with two pumps.2.8 l dont have a lot of power to begin with but if it is really bad you will have to check for any vacuum leaks hoses or something like that you will hear a hissing noise from them with the engine running.check fuel pressure with a guage should be about 4-6 psi and with the year of the truck i would have a compression test done to make sure the engine is ok before you put a lot of money into it.

no. no vehicle has both types. being an 85, i'd think you had a mechanical pump on the block at the bottom since you probably have a carburator rather than fuel injecion. it may even be throttle body. if you cannot find a mechanical pump, it will be an electric pump inside or on top of the tank. if you have a mechanoical pump, you can put an electric pump on it by attaching the pump to the wheel well and getting power from an electrical power point under the hood such as from a radio or something else. then all you need is to connect the fuel line from the tank to the intake of the pump and the line to the carburator or whatever to the leaving side of the pump. very simple to describe, a bit difficult to picture, but still easy to accomplish.

It only has one fuel pump. If you are having a performance issue it could be a carb problem or a fuel pump problem.
