Need a Metering pump and computer

Hey guys its me again. I took the metering pump off the car and part of the housing is cracked. I also took it apart. I figured what the hell it doesnt work so what can I hurt. I have looked everywhere for one ( used naturally) and no dice. Private mechanics along with dealership says most of the time when metering pump goes bad so does the computer. I can buy that through dealing with other makes of cars , it can happen. o to fix this problem once and for all I was wondering if anyone has or knows where I can get a Metering Pump and Computer to fit a 1990 RX7 convert., auto trans. non-turbo, 13b engine. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Paul

Im not too sure about that computer goes bad with the Metering pump. BUT, if i was you, i would block off that metoring pump with a good 2MM plate, and then run premix. Run a search on "premix" and you'll find tons. Its pretty much mixing 2 stroke oil in the gas when you fuel up and let the fuel injectors lubricate the Apex seals instead of using nasty crank case oil to do it.

Roy, you can't go blocking off the electric oil metering pump on a s5 and just run premix, the car will kill you for that! The god damn s5's and their electronic pumps put it into limp mode, and by god does it ever limp! There's been a bunch of electric pumps on ebay the past week, though finding the ECU (n35x) is going to be a bit tricky.

DDDOOOOOOOHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

Well, im sure there is a way to bypass that. Hmm.. i would say maybe going the route of putting a resistor in place of the metoring pump in order to "fool" the ECU into thinking its there, and then go about premixin' that bitch. But, im not sure
