I think my tuner told me to use 5/16 hose but for the life of my couldnt get it to fit so I think I ended up with 3/8? It was a few years ago so my measurements might be wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't hear the walbro pump so I went the relays and swapped it for the horn one and it started up. Then I turned the car off and put the original reply in and it started up with it. So now in not sure could it be a sticking relay and when I removed it then it decided to work. Might just buy a new relay Is it common for a fuel relay to goJust cause the walbro is like 1600kms old Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the check valve is sticking on the pump causing it to lose pressure when its switched off, you got a fuel pressure gauge on it yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's when I checked and had no fuel so I swapped the relays with the horn one and it started but when I put the original fuel pump relay bak it started up so in not sure if it could be a sticky relay and it worked when I played around with it. I never put a fuel pressure gauge on. Might just buy new relay and see how it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
