Fuel pump DELPHI or WALBRO
Rockauto, got a Delphi, replaced it about 3 years ago, still doing its job.
I've come across another option and I was not convinced until Advance Auto actually delivered it and it fit the stock (NA 2+0) assembly. Let me present to you the Delphi FE0161 pump and sock... Yes, it comes with the rubber shell and mounting ears, plus the pickup hose and sock as shown... And my 300ZX is back to a smooth idle and no hiccups on acceleration. Backstory is I had tried an aftermarket generic pump and modified the assembly to fit, but it lasted just two years (<2000 miles) and died.
I put a delphi in about 6 years ago and its been great since.
I’ve put a Delphi pump in a Firebird and one in a Fox Body and they’re great
I used a Delphi and it worked great. No issues at all.
i just put a delphi one in and it seems to be doing great
I have Delphi that I installed over a year ago and no issues.
when it was getting low, yes you can tell because it would misfire up high(just like my fuel cell). However there is absolutely nothing different on the casing, which holds the fuel level sending unit.
I’m replacing the fuel pump in my 02 suburban. I’ve got a Delphi fuel pump going in that I bought off rockauto. First thing I noticed was one of the plugs are different. Ask about it, they’ve got a new style plug cuz the only ones broke a lot. Nbd got the new plug, looked up how to wire it. It’s color matched on the wires in my truck cool. So I wire up the new plug, get the pump in the tank, go to prime the pump and nothing. No noise from the pump at all. I check all my fuses, and made sure I’ve got power at the plug. Alls good so far but the pump ain’t doing anything.
I finally figured out my issue was the fuel pump, so I dropped the half full tank on my sloped driveway very carefully and installed the Dephi fuel pump. Reinstalled and refilled the gas tank and it drove great for 3 trips. The first trip was to the gas station to fill the other half of the tank and the last trip was to my office to show off. Now the dang thing won't start again.
I found that all fuses and relays were fine and I am getting 12V power down to the fuel pump but the pump doesn't turn, so my obvious conclusion is that the Delphi fuel pump failed.
