Fuel Pump. Anyone have Pics of failure of the hose /split etc
Not the best day for me. In the middle of nowhere, it was like the key was shut off.
Coasted onto a dead end intersection and walked a few miles for cell reception.
Car would start for a sec if you cycle the key to "charge" the fuel system. I think it's the pump spilling back.
My pumps been replaced by the previous owner and is only 5k mile old.
Thats the bad news.
The good news is the wrecker driver was great. Very careful. Not a scratch and charged me only $50 bucks to flatbed to my house.
So what's the fix. GT2 pump?
Pics if you got them.
Thanks.

Wasn't it Tony from EPL that was recommending the Bosch #044 fuel pump upgrade. Since you have his turbos and tune, I would double check with him. And then let us know if that is correct.

He just got back with me.
Said that that he too feels that it's just the hose popping off due to what could be our NE ethynol gas.
He also said stock pump can handle the 16G's so 040 or 044 pumps are overkill.
