Ok everyone, I'd like to know your thoughts, especially if you have installed the all in one fuel pump from DMCH. I am currently looking at my options of upgrading to the new pump or rebuilding what I currently have. Since this is a part that seems to be prone to failure, I'd like to have it as reliable as possible.
I took my car out today for 150+ mile cruise after finishing a bunch of work and I had the A/C on as it was about90 or so degrees in North Carolina today. When I would stop at a red light I could get a fuel smell in the drivers compartment. So I removed the spare and removed the access panel to look at the fuel pump. ( seems like a good place to start since this is one area I have not messed with yet since purchasing the the car.) also being that the fuel tank is in the front only seemed logical that that is where I was getting the smell. cooling fans running with A/C on + Fuel leak= smell in the car. Also when I would start driving the smell would go away.
any way this is what I found .....IMG_4359.jpgIMG_4358.jpg
Looks as if the fuel pump seal is leaking , and has been for a while. Also I have noticed that the pump is getting louder and louder . It calms down when you fill it with fresh cool fuel. But it has me concerned that the pump is on the way out. .... So.... With all that said, I am contemplating going with DMCH's new all in one style pump. But I'd like to hear some real time reviews on it. any problems? how's it work? it is worth the up grade?
I'm listening! Thanks!
