in the fuel tank. pull your back seat off. Stick with oem on it the walbro one doesn't fit very well. even with shaving the plastic.

OEM filter or pump? I have the Walbro pump, just haven't installed it yet. My car isn't passing emissions niether today was my 5th retest in two months lol. New cat, new vaccum lines, new vaccum control solenoid, new egr control valve. I dont know what else could be causing the high NO readings on the gas sniffer. Frustrating as #$%^!!!

The tech said it could be an exhaust leak. Im going to have to take it to SMOG technician and have them diagnosis it. Ive been told it was a bad EGR valve. i tested that out and it tested fine. Then it was bad vaccuum lines, test those and they were ok. Then I was told it was the cat so i replaced that and it failed worse then it ever has.

Replacing the EGR valve... I don't know what other component to replace. EVAP emissions control valve? Catalytic converter in the exhaust manifold? High NO on both 15mph and 25mph. Any ideas?

I still have my stock manifold if you need one. Are they just doing an OBDII check or they doing the sniffer? Any reason don't switch to tephra v7 and set all to ready if no sniffer?

Mine passed without getting my recall taken care of, but I need to do that...have you had your ECU flashed per the recall that is like several years old?

Mine starts to stall out every once and awhile did you change you fuel filter and if so did that help the problem?

I have 164k miles on mine so I probably should look into changing the fuel pump/filter, since they are one in the same and are likely going to be going out of commission any day.
