88 Mr2 Venom Fuel Pump Problems.

Krimzen · 03-17-2008, 12:00 AM

Well, Maybe going with Venom was my problem. Anyways, the car was running fine, it sat for about two weeks, I went to start it and no fuel pump. I check for power going into the pump, No Power, I have since checked my fused and wiggled my relays and have found no problem.

So, I decide to jump my fuel pump off the battery to see if it will kick on,.........Nothing. The fuel pump will not even buzz from a direct jump.

Does this sound like something in the wiring blew the fuel Pump.???

There is a 255 Walbro for sale on Ebay for 100 dollars. I also heard you can put a fuel pump from a mk2 turbo.

Any ideas for what is wrong with my car????

Thanks guys.

I had a silmilar problem a while back. Out of curiosity what type of voltage are you getting at the fuel pump. I think I had like 9 volts and it turned out the pump was bad.

The pump just randomly went bad. I did not want to believe it but its true. I heard that the stock one will work just fine.
