I have the same problem with my in-tank Bosch 044. As long as I have more than 1/4 tank of gas it goes away.

If your dick fell off would you want the stock replacement or an upgraded version?



Throw a Walbro or two in the tank, hotwire kit if you need two pumps, and get that part of your build out of the way. No since waiting on something important as fuel delivery.

It really depends on your final power goals.

Feel free to give me a call. I can set you up with the proper pump kit for your power needs.

I agree with imma_stocker in not so many words lol, walbro is definitely the way to go, ditch the stock
