returnless fuel system
Im working on an 04 Silverado which does not have return, the guy put a 255 pump in the tank otherwise all stock, im having vary odd fueling problems, it will randomly go lean on one bank, sometimes it just dies like its out of fuel you wait a few min it runs again, saterday it surged real bad at idle till it warmed up and idled fine till I went to go drive it and any time I got into any throddle at all it just ran and died ran and died, im getting a gauge today to make sure but im 95 percent sure its losing fuel pressure cause I can hear the pump run freely then pull down and pressure up after it dies. Iv never messed with this style fuel fuel system before, any idea's?

Frank I haven't got into it much yet, I was just thinking of converting it to return style if other people have ever had problems with this system, can't afford a pressure drop with a nitrous motor. Just trying to gather a little info on this returnless system at the moment to see if its worth messing with.

I have a 02 pump bucket I can put the 255 in, then just get a return rail and run a 4an line back to the bucket, but ill look into it a little more and see what all is really needed

i would use a -6 for a return. Not to thread jack here but my question since where on subject couldnt you add corvette regulator to the stock fuel rail and run return that way?
