Not sure if this is in the right place but anyway

To cut a long story short, lost power to fuel pump have narrowed it down to be the connection between the pump and the cradle connectors (see pic) is there any way to fix these connections without breaking them apart or another option to replace them with ?

 

Note: pics are from a spare shagged cradle I have laying around IMG_0614.jpgIMG_0615.jpg

The problem with above is the wire is sort of like a straw. There really needs to be a terminal on there.

Something like https://www.efihardware.com/products/1593/submersible-pump-bulk-head-terminals

 

Would do the trick.

 

Easier to buy a new fuel hat tbh. I will be making my own terminals though like Ben posted above. I don't really trust the standard hat terminals for the (up to) 30A that the fuel pump could draw.

    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
