inline fuel pump not giving enough fuel? is something wrong?
#11
i would have to say that there is a restriction somewhere. maybe the fuel filter. if not then the intank pump might not be up to par. or the inline isnt getting it done. did you happen to check fuel pressure before the inline. was it the same. if so then the inline isnt keeping up.

today while driving I noticed the fuel pressure with the vacuum tube capped was 58 at idle and cruise. The more gas I gave it, the lower the pressure went. Down to below 40. Something is messed up. Of course, the instructions that came with it were incomplete. Maybe I have it wired wrong? It's the exact same kit that magnacharger sells. It came with some sort of relay which wasn't even mentioned in the instructions. I'm lost.

I think I found the problem. I had no juice going to the pump. I hooked the fused wire onto the positive terminal nut under the fuse box as instructed, no power on that fuse nut. UH OH!!!! Did I screw something up? Does it NEED to be hooked into an ignition switched power source or can it be always hot?
Actually, i had to hook my fuel pressure gauge up to an always hot source because it too was hooked onto that same nut. Help me out. how do I fix that nut to have power. did i fry something? I need an alternate power source ASAP

OK, got it. I wired it to an always hot for now. Seems fine. Here's what I've found. With the vacuum line plugged, the fuel pressure sits at 59 and doesn't budge. With the alcohol turned on I no longer get any KR. With the alcohol off I only see 4deg or so of KR. I think I'm on my way to having this thing running right, FINALLY

there's a relay that came with it. 2 are ground, one is hot, one is to the gray fuel pump wire. As far as I can tell, the fuel pump only gets juice when the ignition is switched. I'll re-check it.
