Walbro Install Kit

hey guys, i've just recently bought a Walbro 255 for my FC turbo2 and for some reason i didnt get the installation kit so i dont have the connector. Is there any way for me to retrofit a connector for my fuel pump or do i HAVE to get the kit?

well, in theory all you need to do is connect the two wires seperately and ensure they are water tight. But.......I would get the installation kit.......you KNOW its going to be fine instead of worrying about some chincy connectors bouncing off when you hit a bump.

Curious, you bought a used walbro?

Well if its new, it should.


I got mine from ebay for 99 + shipping...had a new insolator, wiring, hose & clamps. If you didn't get all of that ad paid for a new pump, you better fire up the bitter bus and head back over to your "buddy"

do you use the standard relay when fitting the pump or wire up a new one?
