Birds it doesnt look the same though. I have had pumps look much healthier than that one and be completely dead due to far less sediment. Ive also seen my Walbro after some time as it tends to come in and out of my tank a bit..

If you are gonna go 1 pump (which is always better than 2 pumps) then pay the $40 extra and get a pump that will flow 450rwkw on E85.

ditch the whole intank setup and run a mechanical fuel pump off the camshaft.

I'm not following the logic here - are we blaming the fuel pump for how much sediment is at the bottom of a fuel tank? It's what's inside the fuel pump that fails - someone showing an external pic of a fuel pump with sediment covering the mesh shows no failure by cause of the pump...it shows long term use in a dirty tank with the pump mounted too low to the bottom. This will kill any pump eventually, even with a sick filter.

Why? I don't have 450rwkw in the GTS-T and never will...and cbf with wiring and cutting to use a different pump. The 040 is perfectly capable of flowing 600hp+ which is more than I'll need and has been trialed by myself to last 5 years when it's only warrantied for 1. Plenty of people kill walbros and an E85 pump - still don't understand what makes it an E85 pump - is no exception to the same rules that kill non E85 fuel pumps in non E85 tanks.

From the testing I've seen, TWO 255lph pumps running through the factory fuel lines, provides a higher fuel pressure for longer than a single 460lph or similar. 1 pump is not always better than 2.

What I meant was... You don't want 2 pumps and have one die on you.... It's far better to only have 1 pump.. If that pump were to die..

For what birds is doing, the 040 is fine... My point about it dying is my ones died and they looked clean as from the outside. One that looked that clogged but still worked is pretty amazing to me. They didn't need 'much' gunk to die... For me, and I went through 3 of them before I switched to pumps which had external filters (daetschwerks then a 460 when I needed dat flow)

I think you're largely discounting the Greg factor here

[Borci88]

Yeah, I'm gonna go with, stick another 040 in there, or put a 465lph Walbro in there. Either will be fine.

Man, those 040's are crap. Just get the 460L and be done.

While I agree with you, Birds is gonna Birds.

Stop reading the articles then...
This is the only place I hear anything about hard done by FIFO workers.
