oud new owner of a 97 eclipse gs, it has a built 420a, and the previous owner put a walboro 255lph. I drove the car, drives good. I went to the gas station, came back and the car wouldn't fire. I checked for spark and it has spark, but no fuel, I couldn't hear the fuel pump priming. this thread (http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/420a-bolt-tech/348342-97-gs-420a-intermittent-fuel-pump-issue.html) told me to mess with the black boxes between the brake and clutch reservoir. I unplugged it and replugged it and it fired up, but it does it again. Does anyone know what these boxes are called? Please let me know asap, I need this car working asap. Here is a picture for reference.

Thanks in advance!
 
As was stated one is the fuel pump relay which is probably not switching properly. A sugested mod is to also run new wires to the pump since the stock wires are small and have a tendency to cause problems with age and pumps that draw more current than stock.
