Who did U get the pump from ? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

Placement sounds fine. In-line pumps like to push more than pull, so you don't want to have any "obstructions" in the path prior to the pump...

got it on, tighten it as much as possible with hose clamps. while running it does leak but if you bend the pipe a little or push it it will leak fuel. i guess i just shouldnt poke it then huh? would i have any problems when its working harder?
thx for the input.

does anything come with a walbro pump besides the pump, sound deadener, and connectors?? I was the guy that sold it to him, and that was all I got when I bought it new (no instructions). has anyone bought a walbro pump and got more than that? just making sure <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

If not you should install one because under a high load the inline pump needs more current than the small stock wire can provide.
