Hey AustinEvo8, you may have very likely checked this already but check ALL of the little vacum lines on the intake manifold, and definitely check your vac lines behind the intake manifold on the driver's side that go to the egr valve, zip tie all of the lines that you can get to, everytime I have this problem it's a new line that I hadn't noticed popped off the intake manifold sometimes. good luck

Are you running the walbro pump without a reflash or any fuel control?

No, its directed to AustinEvo8.

The reason I say that is because from my experience just putting the walbro in without any fuel control makes it run extremely rich above 5000 RPM

yeah, I agree, I had my Walbro in for about a week before I got Al to retune for it and it ran pig rich above 5000 rpm, at least it seemed to as I didn't have a wideband to verify.
