bad fuel pump...

[striker827]

Well, about a week ago my dsm didnt want to start up... after inspecting and checking the obvious things i finally concluded that it was the fuel pump. The question here is the replacement fp cost me roughly about $170. give or take a few... and after looking around.. i c that the walbro255 is about 100 bux. For right now i dont really need to move that car... but would it be "safe" just to install it and be able to drive it, or would it cause any problems? (in the future i do plan to turbo it, and right now im just starting to build up the bottom end rods,pistons, bearings, etc..)

Get the walbro. You shouldnt have any problems running walbro fuel pump on a stock car for now, Besides its cheaper too.

Find a part out and just pick up a stock one for now. Or get one from a wrecking yard.

Just get a walbro, like rs-t suggested.

Make sure you check the ads on here as someone seems to be selling one every now and then for a good price.

I was just about to purchase the fp from "extrempsi" and it seems that they have 2 types of 255lp pumps.. the high pressure and i take it the other is the regular 1... so... whats the difference and which 1 should i purchase?

255lph high pressure pump.

High pressure flows more, get that one since they cost the same!
