Well my car isnt starting. Drove to autozone and was going to leave and the car wouldnt start. Sounds like its not getting fuel. Looked at the injectors and injector #1 was covered in oil. ZZP gave me a crank case filter that I used and well the filter is very brown now and looks like it was leaking onto the injector. Pulled the injector and it was oil and slimy inside the injector connector harness and there was a small pool of what smelled and looked like oil just sitting in the o-ring seat. So now my car is stuck at autozone unitl I get it towed and I have no idea what to do.

Found out that I'm getting no pressure to the fuel rail so either my fuel pump is bad or the relay is bad and hopefully it is just the relay.

damn dude... sorry to hear. They should have relay's at autozone

troyss

Hmmm

HyperMuffin

So I bought a new relay and plugged it in and the car fired right up. Then turned it off and started it gain to leave autozone and when I went to leave my house the car wouldn't start again. Only thing I can think of is something shorting the circuit and blowing the fuel pump relay

hmm how was the install with the zzp kit,did everything fit well or did you have to do some modifications?

HyperMuffin

Well thats the thing, I have had the pump wired to the same place since beginning of summer when I installed the kit and haven't had any problems. I'll double check though.

HyperMuffin

So it started today and drove it to my dads shop that he works at and they said the fuel pressure is really low so most likely a bad fuel pump.

troyss

Told you its not as bad as you think but If you need help putting it on or another set of hands text me

HyperMuffin

I'm probably just gonna have someone tow it to metro and ill use their lifts and put it on myself and hopefully it won't be that hard.

Only shitty part is the fuel pump is 270$ after taxes.

troyss

O **** thats expensive... That sucks but it comes with modding cars I guess

HyperMuffin

I never heard of fuel pumps going out, but yeah guess it was working harder than when it was stock lol.

troyss

Does the SS have better fuel pumps in them or are they the same?

HyperMuffin

I think they are all the same except for the ones in the SS/TC

troyss

Gotcha

Now this has nothing to do with your fuel pump problems, but how easy was the install and was it worth it for the zzp supercharger kit? (i'm thinking about adding a blower)

^^^^

HyperMuffin

It was really easy I just took my time doing it so I didn't screw anything up. Was like a 3 or 4 day project but you could get it done in 1 day easy

Sweet, and i'm going to assume it made your balt into a whole new animal

HyperMuffin

It definitely woke it up, I just hate the fact that its an automatic. With a 5spd, I'm sure I would have been even happier.

What size pull are you running? did you get the stage 2 kit or just stage 1?
