Fuel Systems and Drivability / Quality OE Fuel pumps?
« Last post by Scaryfastatx on September 30, 2026, 10:21:05 pm »Anybody have any guidance?
On my 305 dualjet with return, I had a carter pump and it lasted about 1-2 years
Finally gave out a few weeks ago
I ordered a Delphi and it was dead out of the box, wouldn't hold pressure unless I capped off the return line
Got a replacement Delphi shipped by the vendor
The replacement worked for about 30 minutes and then died, luckily I had some vice grips and was able to make it home.
The replacement won't hold pressure unless the return is capped also
It's crazy that you can't find a good fuel pump anymore
