    Post New Walbro fuel pump cuting out???

    just had a Walbro fuel pump installed. the car is sputtering and dieing intermittently
    The sending unit is not in good shape,

    I isolated the wires from the sending unit and just ran 2 wire straight to the pump.
    still not working

    Has anyone had the Walbro pump crap out on them?

    I ordered a new sending unit and plan to do more tests to see if its the pump or electrical. But I don't know where to start.

    Ya my first choice was Tomei $$$$$$ hey how much are Nismo's
    How did you know it crapped out
    I am think of hooking up my multimeter and if It has constant voltage when it craps out. I figure its the pump.

    I bought a tomei pump for something like 500$ or something. Not bad when you know it's going to be reliable
    Miss driving sooooo bad! Need to get a car on the road ASAP!

    Did you run new wiring or use the old wires( just wondering because gtr pumps are two staged through ground)

    When you ran the wires to the pump did was it after the relay? Ive heard of people having problems with the relays going for a dump. I bypassed mine so the pump runs constant, this will shorten the life of the pump of course, but id rather have that than a shoddy relay causing problems.

    read another thread: cut open the harness in the trunk and run the large brown wire(ground) to the strut tower or floor

    What do you think?
