Car died - fuel pump?

[dubster99]

I think my bap finally fried my stock pump. I was driving around town today and it started to sputter, and then shut off. Luckily it was low speed and no traffic, and I was able to coast it into a parking lot. Car would crank but not start. After letting it sit for a bit, I got in and depressed the clutch. I hear the fuel pump relay click, but don't hear the pump prime. Here's what I've done so far after getting it towed home.

Checked fuel pump fuse - good
Checked bap fuse - good
Unplugged bap and hooked up stock connector back - no prime, no start

That to me seems like a fuel pump gone bad to me. But before I go buy a fuel system, anything else you think it could be that I should check? No cel on.

wouldnt be the first time an S550 with a BAP has killed a fuel pump. ask me how i know :cheers:

luckily getting the whole basket out takes about 15 mins. just make sure you remove both clips on one of the lines.

Hey man before u pull the pump,due a fuel pressure test,easy just put a pressure guage in like wheir the fuel line goes into the rails.

The pump doesn't prime at all

BAP fried my fuel pump as well. That's when I moved to a return style.

Who is your tuner and what did they charge you to tune for return system?

This is why I've said around here that BAPS aren't to be trusted. Least you didn't lose an engine. Seen it happen a lot over the years

 

[dubster99]

Yeah I feel lucky. I was just kinda pulling out onto the road. Low rpm and low throttle

One of the reasons I went to return style too. Now if I can just get the damn thing right.

RevAuto in Baltimore has done my tuning from the beginning. I think I paid something like $1250 for my twin pump setup.
