does anyone know what to look for after i installed a walbro 255 pump my gas gauge dosent work im lost any suggestions?

 

you might have installed the assembly wrong and the floater might be caught. I know when I bought my car the gas gauge didn't work, and I just took the assembly out and put it back in and it worked fine.

intermittently working gas guages are also commonly caused by dirty contacts on the back of the guage. If it works when the tank is full then suddenly drops to E, it has nothing to do with your pump and the guage needs cleaning. If it doesn't work at all then take eage8's advice.

 

nope its on e all the time dosent even move tommorow ima take it out giggle it out a little then put it back in

 

^^ are you going to tickle it under its arm??

 

lmao maybe it will do the trick

 

ok new update the gas gauge works when its on acessory but as soon as i turn on the car it goes down anyone have a idea?

 

?

 

that's really weird... I would just try to clean all the connectors... either that or strat testing stuff with a multimeter or something.

did u check ur fuses?

 

My guess is there's not enough voltage to the pump and when it runs it's draining so much that it can't send a proper signal back. Check the voltages!

 

yea id like to rewire it but i cant find any links or anything on directions on a rewire process any help on this would be greatful

 

anyone know how to rewire a fuel pump?

 

if your talking about the constant 12-13volt rewire mod, its somewhere around here, just search

 

mine dont work either and im lazy so every 2 days i just fill up my gas... unless i beat on it then every day just to be on the safe side
