Can you provide the normal amp reading of
good pump, Below/Above what reading should I be immediately concerned?

Your fuel pump current drew is approx 7.5 Amp
should not exceed 10 Amps,If over replace it.
The fuel delivery should get 1 liter after
40 sesconds or more.
Hope that help

The pump isn't the thing that can cause the curent draw to exceed 10A, a plugged filter or screen at the fuel distributor can raise the amount of current the pump requires. Fuel delivery is measured on the fuel RETURN line & most M.B. pumps are rated at 1 liter(quart) in approx 30 sec. Hope this helps!
