i was drivin the rex today and it's been kinda stutterin cause we're still trying to get the kinks out with this new carb on; well i got it to about 8000rpms and it just stopped. i was like, "APEX SEAL = GONE NOOOO!" pulled into a neigborhood and then it cranked back up and revved real nice no problem. then it died. then i noticed it wasnt getting any damn gas! MUHUAHAHHAAA, soooo. FUEL PUMP TIME!

 

hey man the exact same thing happened to me. but i think that i messed up the wiring because my 7 would drive great, but when i hit bumps it would bog and turn off. so i checked the fuel pump wires and they would disconnect.

 

hmmm, mine cranks up then dies out slowly as the fuel starts to disapate. odd

 

is the carb pump the one that has less pressure on it for the carb??? i was thinking put a 13B pump in there...

 

yea, if i put a 13b pump in there it will push waaaay too much fuel. i actually have a holley fuel pump i can use. i would like to put it on there but i dont a regulator right now. hahaha. so i'm gonna hit the salvage yard again tonight and grab a stock fuel pump for the time being. could a fuel pump that is really starting to go bad cause a weird idle?
