your not getting any pressure??
did you turn the assembly upside down when you installed the fuel pump?? if so, you will need to check an o-ring that is in the fuel pump/pick up assembly. you will have to remove the assembly again....ugh..
for quick reference, you can go here for a pic:

step 15 will show you the connection i am speaking of. it is the black sensor with the wire coming out of it.
once you remove the assembly, there is another plugin that will have to be unsnapped and checked. it is near the bottom of the pump when you look at it from the bottom. carefully unsnap the two side clips and slowly remove it. there is an o-ring that may have turned sideways or came off of the fitting. once you have checked that, remove the o-ring put it back on the nipple, turn the assembly upright, and snap the darned thing back in. DONT TURN IT BACK OVER. reinstall the assembly and check for start up.
good luck.

Not sure what is going on with the car.....but it is definitely affected by the heat. Sounds crazy I know.....but i have seen it happen in 100 + degree heat every time. However every time it is 78 degrees.....the sucker starts right up.
Thanks....I went-a-searching for it as well. The only issue is that I never removed that sensor (if you are talking about the sensor with only 1 black wire running from it).
Unfortunately it is already at the stealer, so I will see if they find something that I missed. Anyone know if the Walbro fuel pumps are warrantied?
