Hey all,
I recently installed a 190 LPH pump from the Sho Shop in hopes of solving a
drivability issue (stalling and lack of power). It still stalls so I brought
it in for a diagnostic. They said I needed new valve cover gaskets and oil
well seals (obviously), a new IAC (which should help), and a new fuel pump
(what the ****?). According to them, it wasn't holding pressure once the car
was turned off. Is this normal for an aftermarket pump? I also have some
trouble codes dealing with the fuel pump primary and secondary circuits, codes
542 and 55* ( I think). Can anyone help me with this? From what I can feel
while driving it, the pump is definitely working. What's going on?
Thanks a lot in advance!!
