its behind the panel between the b and c pillar, driver side. and it is very unreliable after all this time. the easiest way to bypass it if it is your problem is to run an earth directly from the fuel pump negative to the chasis.

i have been having huge issues with my fuel system and have put it down to this!!! we have tryed everything else!!!!! so run a spliced earth straight to chasis in the boot somewhere??

is this the metal box thing thats similiar looking to the attessa ecu etc in size?

we are no looking at completely removing the module all to gether. has anyone dont this before? will it be stuck on high voltage all the time once the module is removed?

removed the module and ran a separate power supply to fuel pumps via a direct feed (relay controlled).

yes same...and no ill effects, although it is a race car it also gets road driven a fair bit.

and yes to answer the earlier question - just run it straight to a good earth in the boot somewhere.

Bringing this one back from the dead...

My car would run for about 30 seconds - a minute then cut off. I'd let it sit for about 10 minutes then it would fire up and run again for 30 seconds - a minute again. Eventually it just wouldn't start at all. 

Pulled the line off at the fuel filter and cranked the engine and confirmed it wasn't getting any fuel.

Just replaced the pump and the engine still isn't getting any fuel. Would this mod fix that?

Stock ecu, walbro 255, has been running perfect before this.

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
