DanD Veteran / Moderator Dec 1, 2007, 7:21 AM Post #2 of 5 (3329 views) Re: fuel pump Sign In I just looked up the specs between a 95 & 96 and they are slightly different. A 95 W code engine (Vortec) wants 55-61 psi, a Z code Engine (TBI Injection) wants 9-13 PSI; the 96 W code wants 60–66 psi, These Vortec engines are very fussy when it comes to the proper fuel pressure. I’ve seen a fuel pump only a pound or two shy of the minimum pressure rating and the engine not start. It’s because of the design of popit style injectors they used; it’s the fuel pressure that opens the injector, not an electrical solenoid like on an EFI system. These injectors are more like a diesel’s injectors. GM has brought out a retrofit multi port injection system to replace the popit design, but the cost of the retro is more in cost then replacing the fuel pump. I’ve converted a few vehicles when there’s been issues with the popet injectors that were sticking. Dan.

DanD Veteran / Moderator Dec 4, 2007, 4:46 AM Post #4 of 5 (3317 views) Re: fuel pump Sign In The motor “pump” is what produces the pressure they are one in the same. Hanging the wrong motor on the proper sending unit; you’ll still have the wrong motor/pump. I don’t think you’ll have much luck trying to separate the electrical motor from the mechanical pump, they are stamped together during assembly. Here’s a picture of the pump and what you’ll find after taking the fuel pump/sending unit apart. Dan.
