For some reason i can't keep gas to the carb, the fuel pump that was in it was a generic aftermarket v8 fuel pump from O'Reilly's. It was fine for about a month then it started getting loud and finally quit pumping and left me stranded. it was under the hood on the inner fender well so i assumed it was too far from the tank.
i replaced it with a new pump, same design but moved it back near the tank using an aluminum bracket. It worked like a charm keeping the fuel filter under the hood full. Now it'll run fine until it warms up and then it slowly starts dropping RPM at idle. in the time it takes me to get home(20 minutes) the fuel filter is completely dry and if i sit at idle too long it'll try to die on me. the pump is fairly warm to the touch as well.
could this be a voltage problem? though i checked it when i installed it and the pump is getting 12v. or is it just that this pump can't keep up?
engine is stock from a 95 with a holley 600 and the only mod is Hooker LT headers and O/R H-Pipe
