Just a little comment on my above post, everything you read may be 100% true, but like I said earlier, I've had mine for over a year (admittedly, it is a street setup, and I'm not running crazy numbers either, 19lbs of boost) without any problems with the fuel pump.

I too had one, and was pushing alot from mine, with no trouble. Dave Buschur pushed one in his 10 second street driven evo until his duty cycles got too high. I guess we just have good luck with them in our rides lol.

excellent point 92318is.....in my process of elimination, all I had left was either fuel pump or clogged fuel lines. I did replace the pump (who knows, could have been used or a knock off) and it DID fix my issue. I just think there was enough consistency for at least me to try it...it was only $100 and like I said, the very last thing to check!

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction for finding the Walbro fuel pump at Auto Performance Engineering. I have ordered it and am waiting for it to arrive.

I just got my pump from Auto Performance Engineering - Walbro fuel pumps and more and it works great. I was having my A/F ratio going lean above 6000 rpm and its all good now. The part number of the pump is GSS340, the install kit that you will need for the pump is #26, and you will also need a foam sleeve so the pump fits tight in the holder. I didn't know what size I needed so I ordered all three sizes and can't tell you which one I used. They are a dollar or so each. I hope this helps you out.
