Its Alive
well after new pumps, new adjustable regulator, swapping out the IAC it came down to one thing. the 820ohm dropping resistor for the fuel pumps was smashed up and no good. got the new one on tonight and took it out for a run and it seems to be fine.
heres a side by side shot of the part, $29

Here is what my resistor looks like:

Here is where it's located:

On the innercooler pump bracket, behind the innercooler radiator:

I'm having a flashback (kinda)
Isnt this what drove Jody (I belive it was) crazy for the longest time before he found out what it was ??? I always remember one of our Brothers having the strangest Fuel issue for the longest time and in the end it ended up being
this resister, more proff there is a hell of a lot more to our Fuel System than meets the eye...
Either way GOOD SAVE 20 and WOO HOO CONGRATS for doing some serious investigating and catching the SOB

These resistors are sized based on the amperage draw of the two stock pumps. When you step up to 255 Walbros, the amperage is about 25% higher, consequently the resistor runs MUCH hotter. It helps to keep it clean and be sure you don't have anything down there that might restrict the airflow which keeps it cool.
Unfortunately, the resistor is doing it's thing at idle and low speeds so there can be very little airflow around it. Once you exceed ~1/2 throttle, the resistor is switched out of the circuit and the pumps run at the full 12 volts.

can you bypass it? will it melt anything? What if I want to run my pumps at 12V all the time? Will it hurt the pumps? Just curious? I think mine took a dump after I upgraded to the walbro 255's..............
