    Front brake heat

    bearings have only 10 miles on them and both sides are the same temps. I'm probably being over concerned. Thank you for the response though.

    Front brake heat

    I installed Willwood 6 piston calipers and 13 inch rotors some years ago. Life got in the way, and I stopped driving the car much In fact, I only drove the car for very short trips, 1-2 miles at a time. I would start the car and let it go through heat cycles, but I never went on long trips...

    Fuel Stabilizer

    I also use Star Tron. I keep gad on hand for hurricane season. I have kept gas for two years, and then burnt it in my 95 SC Riviera, which is my daily driver. I noticed no ill affects.

    No power to fuel pump harness

    This is not going to provide a solution to your problem, but I had a similar problem recently, from letting my car sit for 5 years. I recently found success, and mine is up and running. I had to send the fuel injectors out to a special shop to have them rebuilt. 3 of them were completely...

    62/62 BB turbo

    Would a Racetronix 255LPH fuel pump provide enough fuel for a 6262 BB turbo? Currently running a TA49 on my Turbo T, with the mods in my signature.

    fuel pump not getting power

    OK. I doubt I would ever do the E85 thing, unless that is all we can buy at the gas station, at some point. My main question is, would I need more fuel than a 255 LPH pump can provide, for a 62MM ball bearing turbo?

    fuel pump not getting power

    Thank you. This is very informative. I was leaning toward the tank from Gbodyparts. I think I'll go with a 255LPH pump to avoid problems with the fuel lines. I should be OK with that pump I guess. I do have a alcohol injection system to add more fuel under boost. I'm running 60lb injectors...

    fuel pump not getting power

    I took the tank out today and it is beyond help. There is a 1/8 inch of sediment and rust over the entire tank. The hanger and sending unit/float is rusted and also beyond repair. So i will need more than just a pump. I'm going all new, as I don't want to have future problems. Any...

    fuel pump not getting power

    I have a hotwire kit from 2005 and I do have the tank grounded to the frame. I was looking at the Racetronix gen 2 340LPH pump and the 255LPH. The 255 seems like a no hassle replacement, but the 340 LPH seems like it would allow for future growth. I wonder if I would have to do anything else...

    Also considering the Racetronic 340LPH pump. Any thoughts?

    fuel pump not getting power

    Yes, you are right. I am not getting power back to the tank, but the pump is bad. It's been sitting for too long in a dry tank. I will now be dropping the tank. I will probably replace the whole assembly with the sending unit and float. Thanks to all that replied. What is th best pump to...

    fuel pump not getting power

    I'm going to try to use the jumper wire to go from the battery to the black wire with orange strip next to the brake booster. I will have someone key the ignition on as I test for voltage back at the gas tank. Tat will at least tell me if the pump works, I guess.

    fuel pump not getting power

    I should also mention that I had the ignition key in the run position for 45 minutes and the ECM go warm. I don't know if that is normal.

    fuel pump not getting power

    I'm embarrassed to say that I've been away from the Buicks for several years. Today I decided To take another look at the problem. Starting with a well charged battery, I made the jumper wire to go directly from the battery, to the grey wire /black plug at the back of the alternator. The one...

    Ok, I'll make a jumper wire tonight when I get home from work. Thanks for the idea.

    fuel pump not getting power

    That may turn on the pump, but the point is that I want to start the car and drive the car, so I have to actually fix it correctly.

    fuel pump not getting power

    I have no 12V power to the green jumper plug at the back of the alternator. I checked and replaced the fuel pump and ECM fuses under the dash. both were good, but I swaped them out anyways. I am getting power to the fuel pump relay on the far right pin. I have not probed or mess with the ECM...

    fuel pump not getting power

    No, i'm not getting power to anywhere near the tank. If I was getting power back there, then I would think it's the pump. I'm not even getting power to the electrical by- pass jumper connection.
