73778, What is your opinion.....Fuel problem
Posted by icedout, Jul-11-04 01:56 PM
I found that i am not getting supply fuel. When I pinch the return line it kills the car so I looked under the car and have no kinks in the supply lines. I have a new walbro 255 with 30lb injectors. Would it be the fuel pump is bad even though it is brandnew... Have heard this many times from 4g63 people that is happened to them... I some sort or restriction after the pump but before the rail....
I really don't want to go and buy a new fuel pump and find that is is a restriction....
thanks for any help in advance!

Well, what fuel pressure are you getting? Did you actually take off the feed line at the rail and get fuel to come out?

I know this is going to sound dumb but make sure you have the lines hooked up right.... this happend to us kinda... we had the return line and the feed line setup backwords... was a simple fix... Hey I had to learn somehow...heh..

I kept the supply line that was there.... I'm getting no pressure on the gauge but the car will run.... when I pinch the return line the car cuts off.... That is telling me that the problem is either the fuel pump or a restriction in the supply line... Just wanted to see if anyone who has had a bad fuel pump has had the same problem
