Hey all,
So since the FFTEC pump went in about a month ago, my car has smoked the same fuse twice, leaving me stranded. I want to say it's the 20 amp #70 but I don't recall, it was a lime green fuse i'd have to re-check. But it's def fuel related, so i'm clearly drawing too many amps and popping it courtesy of the twin low pressure pumps. Does anyone have thoughts as to why, and how to remedy it? Tony suggested I go up to 25 amps for the fuse, wanted to see what the rest of the community thought, I certainly appreciate the help in advance.
I'm thinking it has to be a wiring issue with the FFTEC pump to the OE LPFP, though there is nothing exotic about wiring this particular pump up, it's no different than a Walbro 255.
In terms of symptoms it's pretty simple, the fuse goes out of nowhere and fuel pressure at the rail takes a bath. I didn't even bother trying to get the car re-started more than once this time, was obvious right away what the problem was.
Have at it BB :think:
