yakuza racer 16 Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 ok, so last night i started my car up, pulled out and gave it beans, wheel spinning away, but it was almost like my car was starving on fuel... gave blurps and cutout, i kicked the car in second gear and pulled over one side, switched off and started her upthen there was nothing wrong after that....anyone have the faintest idea where i can start looking?it feels or sounds like my fuel pump giving in, as i can (since i bought the car) hear the fuel pump slightly....is there an aftermarket one i can get? will it do anything for HP?thanks gents Link to post Share on other sites
gary.scales 0 Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 check the relay fuse first, same thing happened to mine and its a cheaper fix than a new fuel pump! Link to post Share on other sites
