Yep, I have a case of bad gas everyone, bad gas.

I sort out the no spark issue with changing the plugs and refreshing the wires.

But... Even though with Sta-Bil my car fuel pump went crappola tonight.

So I am going to change it out. question is my goal is for 18 to 21 lb of boost with rogue attuning supporting mods and widefire head gasket. All of this stuff is already installed.

Which fuel pump should I go with? Lindsey Racing hv?

Just so you know, you do not have a problem with bad gas. Bad gas does not cause fuel pumps to go out. You also did not have a problem with spark, all four plugs and wires will not go bad overnight. It was always a fuel pump issue.

If you are interested, I have a good used Bosch 044 fuel pump with all the fittings and hoses needed for swapping into a 951 (Lindsey Kit). Asking $135+shipping.

Another idea for a fuel pump.

Choice of Metric or —AN

I have read in another thread about bad or old gas contributing heavily to pump failure. My tank has 6 year old gas in it. I did put marine Sta-Bil in it and it's really low. That's why I thought it may be that.

My Spark Plug wires were chewed on by mice or rats recently. It is causing some real difficulties. I have replaced a couple wires and also threw in new plugs as the car did run rich, when it ran. This has the car firing all four plugs now as I have them sitting upright out of their holes. The raining fuse problem I have will be chased down later


But yes, this is now a fuel pump issue, and it's time for it to be replaced, just for good measure.

If it's a real Bosch unit, and in good working order I would like to use it.

Thanks for offering it.
