Fuel pump replacement

I am going to replace my stock fuel pump with a higher capacity Walbro pump.

Has anyone here replaced their in tank pump and have any tips?

Thanks.

I haven't however I think Neal has. Any reason why? Does your motor make that much power? Have you changed out to 24lb injectors? Just curious

Cool

HI!... I installed a WALBRO 190LPH in tank fuel pump last year. It's simple and straight forward. Shouldn't take you more than 1 hour from start to finish. Just read the instructions that come with the pump. I got mine from MIKE T.

Thanks Neal

I have the Walbro 190 lph pump sitting in the garage, and will install it today. My 24 # injectors are on the way.

Did you install your own injectors, and do you have any tips on that??

Thanks

I'm about to install 24 # injectors on my little '98 4.6. Can't keep up to Neal yet, but I'm trying to get respectable.

I've got several boxes of stuff to install here: AF-1, Granatelli, and soon some JBA coated headers.

Cool - good luck with the mods! Sounds like you're gonna run some respectable times on the 1/4

HI!... Peddler1000 : I install *ALL* my own mods. Just make sure you coat the "O" rings with vasoline or WD-40 before installing them. Shouldn't take you more than an hour to do. I've done injector swaps before so it only took me like 25 minutes to do mine.
