This shit is infuriating. I replaced my pump a while ago and now its doing the same stupid crap with the previous pump. I figured out that it was the front fuel filter but now its doing the same thing again. GODDAMN this shit is completely unnecessary all i wanna do is drive the fucking thing.

take a look here if ya have any ideas, the topic is pretty thoroughly discussed on SQC

I wish the one we had didn't have so many problems. :( I'd love to have one of them.

Yeah, get a Bosch or Walbro. I'll probably be putting a Bosch on mine once I slap on a bigger turbo.

^^ I still say keep yours stock man. It just runs so nice...

We think jahjah may have a pinhole leak somewhere that will cause it to loose its prime

Well I'm not planning on a ton. Just a bigger turbo and supporting fuel mods really. And an exhaust probably.

its looking like it was a bad hose clamp. So this pump continues to be running strong even through all my times of testing it :)

I was, until a Fuel filter got clogged and the pump was trying to push through it and fried itself.
