Have you replaced the stock black fuel pump relay with an updated blue one?

**Murlo26** · 09-01-2010

He has the green one, at least he did, maybe he got the blue ones now like I did though

**Kracka** · 09-01-2010

One local down here had a green fail too.

Only 1 of the pumps actually does anything motor fueling wise.

I swapped fuel pump relays around multiple times with no change.

I had the green relays and then swapped them all for blue. Nothing is that simple for me.

Full Blown left the second in-tank pump in there but it doesn't need to be with this setup.

obviously i dont know, but what about a 255 feeding a 044 inline or 255 inline?

Pretty sure he has two 255's feeding one 044. Right?

That's basically what I have. Dual 255's filling a surge tank and the motor being fed by the Bosch 044. The first 255 is always on, the second comes on under boost (Hobbs), and the Bosch runs off of the car's relay. The Bosch would over-run the stock fpr if it was run always-on.

Technically only one of the in-tanks should be needed to fill the surge tank but it was installed so I just left it there.

I don't have the funds to do very much right now. I have an afpr that needs a fitting or two for installation. I would be willing to try a BAP on the Bosch if that had any chance of helping.

The problem is that if the pump isn't getting fuel then making it run faster or doing the afpr won't fix it.

Thats what I was just thinking

**mlomker** · 09-01-2010

DB discovered that my fuel filter was dirty. Holiday E85 ftw. I had gone from a gigantic UR filter that was noisy to the small Jegs/Russell inline filter that BlaqOPs provides. I should probably find a better middle ground.

Could I get that lucky? We'll find out later today.

**Murlo26** · 09-01-2010

Sooo, updates, did it work?

**mlomker** · 09-01-2010

Shane hasn't worked his 14 hour day just yet. I did order a Golan fuel filter, tho.

Nice Shane quote! lol.

I just started reading that WRX vs Evo book.

**Murlo26** · 09-01-2010

Sooo, no word on the car I assume, try again tomorrow?

I figure no news is bad news these days.

The irony is that fuel cells aren't all that expensive. For the money that I have into the Full Blown setup I could have had one and ditched the stock tank altogether.

Sweet! I just picked up the same one for my 1g

**mlomker** · 09-02-2010

Cleaning the fuel filter helped a little but not enough to matter. I guess the next round of shooting in the dark will be afpr, BAP, and a larger fuel filter.

**Murlo26** · 09-02-2010

God, i hope i don't have these fueling issues, I don't think i will, but who knows.

Sucks man, i feel for ya.
