Alrighty. So I have tried to read up on this but no one seems to have posted about it yet.
***i know everyone is going to start forcing the CJM return argument on me.. But I don't have that much money!**
I was driving at the FIRM in Starke a couple of months ago and through turn 2 I felt like my fuel starvation might have worsened.. No idea how but I noticed my fuel meter wasn't working at all..
One month later I'm at VIR. Got some hot laps in and boom. Even worse.. Drive out into the pits and had to do hard left turn circles to correct myself. Now Zdayz comes around this past week and I fuel starve on the Dragon with moderate driving on fairly worn tires. Try to correct but nothing. Waited a couple of hours for someone to rescue me and we tried to diagnose it. Uh oh. I don't hear my fuel pump. Bummer. We stuck it on a trailer at 10pm and drove back to the village. Spoke to Z1 in the morning and they brought a Walbro with them. Few hours later I got fuel pump access.. Oh no what's this? The bottom of the basket was dangling by the wires and the power was yanked off. Floater and spring from one of the posts flew out somewhere in the tank. Car was put back on the trailer and driven home 9 hours away
Today I got my new basket assembly from a 2016 on ebay and put the Walbro in it.
Here we go into dilemma #2. Nissan has the decency to change the connector. What the heII is wrong with these people? Can we just save the changes to the exterior and not important connections? So now since this is my only car and I've been borrowing a friend's car for the last few days I cut the connector out of the old one and JB welded that ish into the new one. There is no load on this part of the top hat so I have no worries of it coming undone.
I have a half tank that I will be putting into the car in a couple of weeks and I will buy a CJM pump into this car as soon as I could... But I haven't seen this yet at all on the forum... So whether I'm the first or not... Here's my story
New plugs vs. Old crimp lock connectors
