Will investigate what you are getting at Roger but im pretty sure that would also have a pin out on the ecu for vss... hmmm. I might just also ignore it Need to figure out why my fuel pump sounds like it belongs in s nascar. Fuck it is loud. And gotten louder. How many fuel pumps have you killed now? I killed one years ago when the return line had a kink in it. Now I just kill them through lake of use while immersed in old gas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tortron Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Found this the cable speedos, the VSS is a mechanical reed switch inside the speedometer. If your speedometer isn't working, the vss isn't either. Prob a bad cable, possibly a broken speedo. The VSS can trigger a governor feature that cuts fuel when the toyota engineers think you're driving too fast; not sure what else it does.http://www.motor.com/article.asp?article_ID=271http://www.the12volt.com/installbay/...TID~98493~PN~1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllTorque Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 ECU pin will be labeled "SPD" (not VSS) http://alflash.com.ua/RX/Acronyms.pdf @Seedy Al 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seedy Al Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Thanks guys. Well. The pin out also doesn't show that lol. I was reading about people doing some splice to by pass the fuel cut but yeah. Fault is only present every so often. Did I hear someone say unplug the cel light? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 that fuel pump is frighteningly loud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yowzer Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Not cavitating is it? Pulling in air from a shitty hose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seedy Al Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Hmmm. I guess that is possible. But how would you know? Has no fuel leaks that im aware of. Going to swap it out for the slightly more expensive not aliexpress item I have. But yeah. Not sure. One concern I do have is maybe the fuel return line is to small, as I had to add an adapter to down size from the fuel rail, which I guess could be causing the fuel pressure to higher and over heating the pump? Will try a fuel pressure gauge at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seedy Al Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Swapped pump last night and other one is quiet but still sounds like its cavitating. Im getting pretty over it as it sounds rude. Thinking I might bite the bullet and go intank pump like I should have in the first place. Issue is fuel pump wiring really. Does anyone know where to buy some sort of fuel proof wiring grommet or flange or something so I can get wires to the pump on tank. I had steelies make me some for the wagon out of nylon and o rings. Bit surely someone just makes something lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The in-tank pumps seem to die when left sitting around in petrol for months at a time (this is a mostly-ignored project car after all). They get clogged up and fail to pump. The pump assembly is from a Nissan and is an old in-tank type with a steel frame. Most of the cars in Pick A Part now have plastic assemblies so don't transfer over easily. I need a pump that will supply the SR20DET well enough, so possibly a random one won't do the job. I got a Bosch pump (iirc) off here a while back (snaked you for it I think) so was going to mount it outside the tank so it could be serviced/swapped more easily. I'll probably take a look and see if it can be attached to the current in-tank assembly though. It's all a hassle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 5 speed ZF box used in the 328i and M3 is a good solid, strong box. Not as easy or cheap to come by as some alternatives though. its also got whacky things like the remote shift linkages and output flange to suit a rubber guibo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
