I hope everyone is having a great new year! I just replaced my fuel pump with a walbro 255 by using the trap door mod. The problem is getting the pump to turn on when trying to start the car.
It seems like if I play with wires a little that plug into the top of the fuel pump holder it will prime, but sometimes it wont. Is there a way to check the wires that connect to the pump without dropping the tank? or could there be a possible shotage in the plug itself?
I'm going out on a limb to say that the pump is good. When it does prime and the car is running it drives and idles smoothly. Also this is my second attempt to replace the pump. The first one was an ebay pump that crapped out the first day so I'm hoping I wouldn't have two bad pumps in a row.
*edit* forgot to mention it's a 2001 3.8 firebird
