Hey guys,
My car has been acting up lately. It was sitting for 3 months. The only thing I changed was the clutch while it sat. Now my problem, when I go to start it, I don't hear the fuel pump go on until I stopped cranking it. I don't have an aftermarket fuel rail or fuel pressure regulator, so I can't check the pressure. So I'm going on my experience, I know the fuel pressure is dropping off. But why I don't know. Like I said the car sat for 3 months so it's easy to forget what exactly the car was doing before.

I truly remember the pump priming when I turned the key. If it helps, I have a walbro 255 without the hardwiring. The pump has roughly 80k miles on it.

Once I get the car started it idles weird and wants to stall. So I give it gas until it catches. When I stop at red lights it sometimes acts up like it wants to stall. That brought me to think the gas went bad. After I got it down to 1/4 of a tank I refilled it and added a fuel additive. It's still acting the same way. Btw I'm running only 93.

Thanks in advance

 

Also I checked the fuel pump relays 1 &2...still nothing

 

well it def has something to do with fuel..double check your fuel pump, rail and injectors!

 

What exactly am I checking for? I don't see any leaks

 

Can anybody else give me any ideas?

Fuel pressure is definitely dropping and my pump only primes after I stopped cranking it

 

Prob solved...mods please delete

 

What was it?
