This is exactly what mine is doing.. did you ever figure out why it keeps burning up there? and also where you got your connector at?? thanks

Hi guys, been a while since ive been here.. Anywhoo, my subaru has been having fuel pump issues so I pulled it out today and found out that one of the harness connectors that plugs in to the bottom of the fuel pump harness connector on the inside of the tank side was burnt. I have been looking all over the internet and I cant find that harness connector anywhere to replace it. does anyone know where I can find one or if there is a way I can just repair the one I got? Its pretty bad but It still plugs in. Thanks alot! Scott

well my fuel pump stopped working so the car was sittin for a couple weeks till i got the fuel pump fixed. i think i got some atf fluid from the leaky power steering pump in the oil thru the open spark plug hole when i was towin it but i changed out the oil but kept the old filter on. the smoke is just coming from the exhaust flange only on the passenger side where i think the tickin is coming from i also took the pcv valve out to spray starting fluid in to diagnose my fuel pump failure but i put it back on and put the hose back on the pcv valve

its a 95 ej22

hi guys i just recently fixed my fuel pump and my car starts now but it is ticking really bad now and below the valve cover on the passenger side of the car starts smoking really bad near the exhaust flange and when i run my car it blows awful white smoke out the tail pipe

thank you for that helpful piece of info. i will try this tommorow after i change the oil and put plugs in

okay well i cleaned up the burnt conector and made it so it made a connection again and put the pump back in the car. the pump works now and the car starts but its ticking really bad.. i think what could be due to alot of atf from the leaky power steering pump getting down in the oil through the spark plug hole that i had the spark plug out of when i was towing the car.. (stupid me) and also all the plugs are really black so im gonna replace them and change the oil and hopefully that will stop the ticking.. the idle rpms are also at like 1.5k when i start the car up.. also there is this buzzing noise which sounds like its coming from the Coolant temp sensor that runs for a couple minutes after i shut the car off..

i bench tested the pump with a 12v battery and it ran fine.. i checked the relay and fuse both were good

i see what your saying but the voltage drop was before the bad connection i read it on the 6pin connector that plugs into the fuel pump assembly connector that sits ontop the lid

bump

but i dont have alot of money at the moment and wanted to test it because im only getting 10 volts to it so it may be a wiring problem and not the pump. *EDIT* okay i unplugged the red and black electrical connector that goes directly to the fuel pump and the other 6pin connector the red connector is black and burnt and the plastic connector is melted a little on the red side. the black connector is silver and not burned and intact.

hi i believe either my fuel pump is no logner working or not getting enough voltage to run it. yesterday i pulled the whole pump assembly out and i was wondering how i could test the pump by putting 12v directly to it and see if it spins? thank you

okay its deffinetly a fuel problem b/c i sprayed some starter fluid in it and it started up for a second but blew some nasty smoke out the tail pipe. I unplugged the connector that goes into the fuel pump and turned the key on and tested the 6 metal conductors on that connector. I put the red one on each one of the metal conductors and the black one on the fuel pump lid for a ground. The highest i got was a reading of 7 - 10 volts

alright i pulled one of the 3 fuel lines coming from the fuel filter headed to the fuel rail and i turned the key on and even cranked it and no fuel i couldnt even smell fuel in the line i pulled. so what is the next step? And thanks for all the input and help guys.. i know the egr code is always gonna be there bc of the 2.2 swap the maf code and fuel temp sensor have always been there since the swap. the iac code came after i started seafoamin it and i did a compression test a few months ago and it was spot on as well as checked the timing belt to make sure it was in time. the belt isnt that old maybe 20k or less miles on it also i know the harness is good i spent weeks inspecting that dam thing when my car was missing so bad it barely moved. i did everything plugs wires coilpack swapped the entire intake w/ fuel rail with known good one nothing fixed that dam miss but seafoam in the pcv valve and in the oil.

well today i had a friend turn the key on and i listened in the gas cap and didnt hear a whirring noise so that leads me to believe my fuel pump is bad.. i found the relay after about 2 hrs of cussing and moving wires and plugs and ************ out of the way under the dash and tested it it clicked. so anyways next step is to find the fuse for the fuel pump however i cant find it anywhere...? does anyone know where it is? and if the fuse is good do i need to replace the pump or is there anything else i can check first? thanks
