Changing the Fuel Pump.. How?
I finally got my FD and the one second day I owned it so proudly, the fuel pump **** the bed, and now I have to drive it like a grandma to keep the engine from starving itself of fuel. I've been looking into the Denso pump, and I was reading that I do not have to drop the tank to replace it... so uhm where do I start?

not sure about the bosch tho, but unless it doesn't need to be modified to fit, then it should be as easy

The Denso pump is the Supra TT pump. It's a direct replacement of the stock fuel pump. I believe the Bosch 044 is an inline fuel pump and would take quite a bit of work to get it to go into the tank if that's what you're wanting to do with it.

Have you downloaded the FSM yet? The link is in the "Tech Manuals" sticky thread. You'll need it.
The "Circuit Relay" near the battery turns the fuel pump on. The "Fuel Pump Relay" near the nose switches the pump between high and low power.
What symptoms are you having? EDIT: just saw your new thread: https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...31#post7224031

Just FYI...the stock fuel pump is a Denso pump but is NOT the Denso Supra TT pump. They look identical and the only way you can tell them apart is by part number, but the Supra TT has a flow rate of 280lph as compared to the Walbro's 255lph and I believe the stock pump is around 220lph. For what its worth.

so i changed the fuel pump, and now gas leaks from around the big rubber seal and all over my tank. all of the screws are tight, but I do recall the seal did not seam to seat right (wrinkled when those 2 nubs were put in the holes to hold it on). i'm assuming i need a new seal... is that a normal issue? or do i just have shitty *** luck
