Holley Blue Fuel Pump warning
Hey Guys I was checking the wiring and organizing some stuff in my trunk. When I noticed the Holley Blue fuel pump was spraying some fuel ( very slight and sporadic sprays ) from this hole (Referr to the arrow in the photo).
After a little while it would stop but I noticed the outer portion of the pump was wet with fuel...The pump continued to sweat fuel.
Has anyone owning a Holley Blue ever noticed this happening with their pump? This can't be normal....
I had it installed in my cobra last December. I never thought to check it, figured it was new..
I looked at photos of these pumps online but I didn't see any of them with this hole. Is mine a defect? I don't think there should ever be fuel of any sort leaking..Little or alot..
I ordered an electric high performance Mallory 4110 comp series 110 fuel pump. The Mallory 4110 comp series brand was originally in my cobra when I bought it. It was very quiet. It worked fine.. It had been in the car since 1993 so I wanted to change it out for piece of mind.
I was told by the Checker Oreilly guy that the Holley Blue was good...I should of just replaced the old Mallory with a new identical Mallory pump. Got suckered into trying something new..
I noticed the Holley Blue was way loud to begin with..made weird sporadic sounds...Other times high pitch whines and pulsating moans ..
So if you have one of these Holley Blue pumps make sure to check it when you turn on the pump at start/idle..
