R34 Fuel Pump Issues

[stathi]

hey guys, just went to take my car to workshop to get it off defect and the thing wont start. check the 15amp fuel pump fuse, its fine, accessories and everything is coming on so its not ignition. I took the line off my fuel filter and the fuel was only trickling out the end and the tank is full. It started perfectly on friday but today wouldnt start. If it is fuel pump which pump will be a straight drop in replacment? Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers, Stathi

Yeah mate same thing happened to me with my 33, except i'd just filled up at a servo and then the pump went,

went to the wreckers and got a pump and the problem was fixed

if you cant hear it prime when ign is on then pretty sure the pump is dead.

walbro is a cheap replacement otherwise get a 2nd hand GTR one.

mine died, turned out to be some gunk had got into pump. Took it out, gave it a shake, all good, no problems since. Mechanic mate said just bang the tank around the pump next time.
