        When you try to turn it on does it try to turn over but can't or does it just click?

              you havent asnwered or completly described what is happening.

              Does the motor turn over? does the starter turn the motor?

                    why would you buy a used one. I dont think this is something you want used but its your choice.

                      Agreed, fuel pumps go all the time. You'd be better off getting a new one. Then again, 50 bucks isn't a bad deal if it lasts for a little while.
