Hello tuners, in the process of trying to pull my stock fuel pump to install my walbro 255 I have kinked the fuel sending unit hard line quite a bit...
So I have two questions. The first: is the line kinked enough to the point that it will effect fuel flow? After all what is the point of a higher flowing pump if the line cannot flow the pump?
And second: I found a new fuel sending unit on rockauto as there are no more oem units available. However the rock auto part states it is for FWD. Is there a difference between the AWD and fwd units? From a quick search it looks like the AWD has the fuel gauge sender and pump assembly together and fwd has it separate.
Really wish I had thought a bit more before putting all my strength on a little metal line...
