Walboro Fuel Pump

[bugger]

I have a walboro fuel pump and i tried to replace it with the stock one.

failed, because the car wont start after that.

is the reason i having a faulty pump?

or i have to modify the fittings?

and on top of all these problems, opinions on walboro fuel pumps are welcome.

and would like to also know WALBORO vs BOSCH.

Cheers.

walbro are good if you get a genuine walbro, and its the 255lph high pressure version.

non genuine, 190l versions, non high pressure versions, all not suitable for performance.

its critical that you get the right one.

people bag them out, but i can guarantee they haven't been genuine or the correct walbro pump.

took me ages to find a genuine pump when i needed one, but its great

If you wanna know Bosch vs Walbro - do a search.

End of the day, IMO they are sh|t.

I tried and tested a brand new, legit one (3-4 years ago). It didnt come close to what was expected of it

Sure, a pump can be doa, but it's unliekly. The question you should be asking yourself is, how much knowledge do you have in relation to installing pumps, wiring correctly etc.

Is the pump getting power? can you hear it prime? did you put the fuel pump relay back in? tested the wiring for power etc?

It's really hard diagnosing a problem over the internet.

i tested the wiring for power. there's power running through the wires. the only problem is there is no sound coming out from the pump.

so i guess it is spoilt.

however, does anyone knows the model number for the BOSCH 040 IN-TANK FUEL PUMP?

please post if anyone knows.

I kinda need the number.

Cheers.

before you go buying another pump i would check to make sure that it is in right, sounds like you have the + and - round the wrong way. also check the ground to make sure it is all good

is there any way to check the pump without putting into the car?

as in, check whether it is working.

Thanks.

I testes my Walbros before I put them in - just connected them to a spare bettery I had - all good !

Don't run for too long without fuel - like 2 seconds..

Yeah - that's right.

What's your reasons for thinking the Bosch and Walbro are shit?

What are your recommendations for a better fuel pump? Nismo? Tomei?

I think he was refering specifically to Walbro, where he had a bad experience, not Bosch as well.

there is no real way apart from what the guys have said but i wouldn't recommend running the pump without fuel
