thanks mecc there working on it the down time will come waiting for the new s/c to come maybe 3-5 days. is there a difference between the 255 and the 342 as far as fit or performance and slimer how old and how much for the pump your selling and which model thanks.
p.s. mecc give me a holler if your still coming up sat.

The GSS342 is a "255" lph hi pressure fuel pump...
That walbro will drop right in without any mods on the 4th Gen... Your base fuel pressure will go up to about 40-42psi. It was made for the DSM Eclipse so you WON'T need the "install" kit... you can reuse your old pickup. You will want to buy a new O-Ring gasket for the gas tank. My install page got deleted so I can't show pics.

its when the car goes lean from lack of fuel. it could be several reasons for this but its mainly for the forced induced and nitrous guys to worry about.the cylinder detonates sometimes destroying the whole engine in my case i was lucky i blew the sparkplug and the seals but everything else is o.k. its gonna cost a couple hundred dollars to fix but thats lucky considering.
