I recently bought a Walbro 190 fuel pump on ebay to replace mine that had gone bad. Before it went bad, I had a hard starting problem that has continued with the new pump, but now it seems it doesn't have the kick on take off to spin the wheels, barking or chirping them at best. Other than that, it runs really well. So I was talking to a friend of mine that's a mechanic and he is telling me I should have used a Ford fuel pump and not Walbro. He said he reads a lot of tech letters and using an aftermarket fuel pump is mentioned a lot as being a problem.
So does anyone know if the Ford fuel pump is better than Walbro? It had a Walbro pump in it that was the one that went bad. I'd hate to drop the tank again because it is running well. I asked him if it could be the fuel pressure regulator or dirty injectors and seemed to keep saying he thought I should have gotten a Ford pump.
Does anyone know????
Thanks,
