I put it together with everything - plugs, wires, distributor, coil, ignition, 42 lb injectors, maf, cold air, and a 255 lph fuel pump. It ran fine but when i called anderson to help with the tune on the PMS, he said to get more fuel. so i got a t-rex external fuel pump hooked it all up - double checked everything. Started it, runs fine. but then i could hardly hit the gas without it stalling. i double checked the fuel pressure while revving it and it seemed ok, never dropped. then while i was setting the computer a little more the car died and i noticed the in-tank fuel pump was not pumping and the car wouldn't start. after the car cooled off i started it again and checked the fuel pressure. it was fine at idle, but when i revved it the pressure dropped off from about 40 down through 30 and closer to 25. what happened? the fuel pump is only about two months old. why would it quit? the wiring supplies the external with power so i know that is good. could the pump be bad?</p></blockquote><p></p>
