Need some help with a cis 8v

heh, what he said......that pump may LOOK exactly like the one that goes in
there, but unless you test it, you may have a digifant pump. And they DO NOT
put out enough pressure. I just went through all this Saturday. Ask Al. He
was kind enough to talk to me whilst I was diagnosing my problem.

i would check the fuel pressure at the rail, or swap out the fpr. it may not
like the high volume from a cis pump (if you've still got one in there).
