i just put in the fuel pump (thanks alot to eric or the epibunch of numbers guy... NOT) its tight it makes the little whine BUT when i put on my turn signal the whine fades in and out... does anyone else do this? is it a problem or do i just not use my turn signal if im getting on it, lol.
help appreciated,
chris


and eric whatever man shit happens i guess, but its done and thats all that matters

 

i think you need a better grounding location and/or shorter ground wire of a thicker guage.

ive ran into the same sort of problem, only w/ audio systems. i had a poorly wired sub/amp box in my blazer, and anytime the bass hit real hard, my head lights would dim. its not supposed to do that and it usually means the amp needs a better grounding location or bigger wire.

oh, and when you do the ground wire, make sure you get some nice 120 grit sand paper and remove all traces of paint/undercoating/sound deadener.

 

did you rewire the fuel pump?

 

every unrewired walbro i know of makes that sound. what Happened with Eric? If its because he didnt help you or something, he has a busy schedule.

 

so who might be able to help me w/ the rewire? or maybe just let me know how to do it... i appreciate all of the help... and w/ eric we were gunna do them together (his and mine at the same time) and he never called but its tight, finals are a bitch and everyone forgets everyonce in a while

We ended up doing the fuel pmup at my house in about 40 mins. it was pretty spur of the moment because eric had to work soon after we finished.

 

Whats the average time to install that ?

 

hey ya, sorry i've been busy lately. I totally didnt know i had a final monday morning at 8am.....that took me by surprise. Had to work monday night, and tues morning, then another final wednesday. So this week isnt good for a fuel pump install, sorry man. As for avg. time it takes approx 1-1.5 hrs if yor not in a hurry and have never done it before. 30 min or less if you know what your doing. It's pretty simple. Rewiring the pump is easy. Like Tom said, read the vfaq make it your friend. All you do it run a wire directly to the battery itself. Have at it and dont blow anything up.
