Walbro 255 Upgrade

Post by Mudgey » Wed Jun 12, 2013 2:32 pm

Hello,

I want to fit my uprated fuel pump this evening, its a Walbro 255 which came off the civic, is there anything prelude specific I need for it to make it fit? Or will it literally plug straight into the existing fuel pump housing?

Cheers!

I thought the Walbros (and my HRC 255 pump) also come with specific fittings kits and pickup filters? The pump is the same but the rest not so. I guess you'll soon find out this evening!

At the worst you can just re-use the ones already on the lude. :wink:
