Default Question diagnosing fuel pump

1991 accord lx auto

This car died on me the other day and will randomly start after about 6 hrs. to 1 day.

The pump only primes once in a while with the key turned to the on position. But makes a clunking noise every time the key is turned on.

I checked voltage at the fuel sending unit yellow wire and have 10.7-11.5 volts every time the key is turned on.


My thoughts so far are:

Fuel pump bad

Bad ground to pump

I'm testing voltage wrong

Any ideas?
