fuel pump Chrysler 360

Post by TADTOOMUCH »

I am having problems with rough running at high RPM around 2200.

I think the fuel pump may be the issue. Runs okay at idle just a little rougher than the starboard but not bad.

Has anyone replaced their OEM Chrysler fuel pump with a new one? Do the fuel lines all line up the same or do I need to re-do those too?

Don't think 2200 rpm is high rpm. What happens when you open her up?

RPM issue

Post by TADTOOMUCH »

I meant anything over 2200 rpm and she starts to sputter. at 800 rpms up until about 2100 she seems to run okay. I can't get it to run at all around 3000 or it will run out of gas and quit.

ignition or fuel

yea, I was also going to do some checking of the distributor, rotor, spark advance to make sure as those items are pretty cheap to replace and check. I got a new marine fuel pump on e-bay for 33 bucks so I thought I'd replace that as well and if not the problem then I'd have one for future.
