my 93ss just power surged one day and must of shorted out my fuel pump. idk if its the whole sending unit or just the pump.. can i just get a pump and can it be after market like not the stock one? or is the sending unit junk too? let me know bc this needs to be fixed so i can go back to driving this car again

I'd say sending unit is good, if the car is stock find one from another Subaru. Or if it's moded get a aftermarket one or if you plan to mod it.

Pulling the fuel pump out is extremely easy. You will have no problem doing it yourself

Get a walbro 255 lph pump and conversion kit. They're relatively cheap and will handle any future upgrades you throw at the car. There's several threads on the BBS with info on the specific part #'s for the pump & kit

well i already got the tdo4 top mount upgrades in and 3" turbo back with a boost controller and fcd also so i guess what your saying is get a walbro 255 but money is tight thats why i was thinkin cheapest way out

You can try getting another turbo legacy pump. I think I've actually got one laying around. If you're interested in it, shoot me a pm and make me an offer.

Check your fuel pump relay, too. Could be something as simple as that if you're not positive that it's the pump itself.

i tried but when i took the dash apart and looked where it was supposed to be it wasnt there it was supposed to be on top of the main relay but it wasnt there but i checked the voltage going to the pump and it was getting power so its gotta be the pump i take it

Yea it's gotta be the pump.

Walbro's aren't very expensive though, IIRC it's cheaper than a new pump. But I guess you could go with a used stock pump if you really wanna save money.

ill prob get the stock one just to make sure this is gonna fix it then get the walbro down the road i found one on ebAY brand new for 55 shipped idk if it comes with the install kit or not but are all the install kits the same for the walbro255 and will work with my ss? i just want to double check before buying it

If you get the Walbro, make sure to get the correct pump & adapter kit. The correct part #'s for the pump & adapater kit are in this post.
