So I go out today to install the Denso pump that I bought in the summer

[Steve Wood]

yeah, the TT Supra pump

Supposed to be very reliable, but, it draws more amps and does not flow a lot more fuel at 70 psi than the stock pump.  On the other hand, if you crank the voltage up, it does a lot better.  It does flow a lot more at lower pressures.

This might be a better pic

Spend all that money on the proper fuel line and you still use worm clamps.......d o I need to come kick you in the ass?

[Steve Wood]

I had some of the t bolt style fuel line clamps, but, for some reason, I don't trust them.  I figure the next time this comes out of the tank, I will be sitting in my rocking chair poking some dumbass kid with my cane telling him how to do it and he can use the other style....unles s the sender does not work right after being taken apart about twenty times while I tried to resurrect it..then I have another nine inches of hose available.

Steve I hope that new fuel pump runs at least as long as this thread has lasted. 

[Steve Wood]

Laughing...old and slow, that is me

You could have used the ss pinch clamps, cheap and strong.

that is what I called t bolt clamps

And I thought Earl was only a Doctor of "LUUUUUUUUUUUUU VVVVVVV"

Where do you think strange spots usually cum from? 

[Steve Wood]

so the new o-ring was just enuf larger to drop right into the groove....seem ed to be a hair fatter as well which will make for a better seal.

Now, tomorrow, if I am not too fat to get the tank dragged back on my stomach when I am under the car, it should go back in.

Sender seems to be working so maybe my "fixing" it worked...guess that is to be determined with use.  Resistance is close to maybe it will not read over full so much

[stevemon]

Winning! Or, we hope so Steve!

[SuperSix]

Resistance is futile

[nocooler]

Now that there is resistance - it'll read empty all the time instead of full 

[Steve Wood]

empty = 0 ohms

full= 90 ohms

You thinking Mopar or Ford

Do you do all of this work by yourself?? That fuel pump swap was a B word for me and Charles.
