Author Topic: fuel pump eighty8mclaren ¯ Member # 2751 posted                              My car died in an intersection yesterday, it seemed like I had run out of gas. But I still had just under a half a tank. Had some guy help me push it into the gas station and filled her up. The she started right up again. A budy of mine said that if the fuel pump is crappy (which it is) then if it has less than half a tank it can over heat. I also have 195k miles on it.lol But to make a long story short, should I just get a stock fuel pump or should I upgrade to a walbro, bbk, etc. Posts: 100 | From: los angeles | Registered: Apr 2003  |  : 89saleen ¯ Member # 3083 posted                              When it quits again, turn your key to the "on" position,-not "start", you should hear your fuel pump buzz for a second. If it aint buzzin, proably the pump or the relay under your seat. Get a pump for a 93 cobra at Napa for $97, and a new fuel filter to validate the warranty. Its a 155lph..

They all work I guess, some just last longer than others.

Only time will tell.... Posts: 2373 | Registered: Jun 2000  |  : eighty8mclaren ¯ Member # 2751 posted                              what is the TFI modual and how do I go about fixing that?
