I was driving down the highway today, pushed it a little hard to get it into boost, and after I let off I noticed the CEL came on. I was thinking something went pretty wrong and I was gonna have some problems to take care of, but the car kept running fine. I finally had the chance to pull it over so I looked under the hood for a quick scan to see if anything came unhooked, nothing I could see. I plugged my logger in to check the CELs and it came up as a fuel pump problem, I believe the number was 42 but I'm not sure. I went to the trunk and checked out the fuel pump and everything seemed fine. It is rewired so I checked the wiring, connections, everything seemed ok. The pump turned on and when I drove it back it drove no differently than before. Is this just a dump CEL or is something wrong that I didn't notice? Thanks for any advice.
 
I did that last night, I disconnected the battery overnight and the code went away in the morning. I'll let you know if it comes back, thanks for the advice.
