Default Fuel Pump won't start

So, here's my problem:

I have a 91 Si with a JDM B16 swap, and I'm having problems with the fuel pump. It has a 255 Holley Fuel Pump, the problem is that sometimes when I start my car the fuel pump won't start so therefore the motor can't run. On the fuse box there's a fuse that controls the pump's power but she just keeps blowing every fuse that I put on! I think that it may be a shot circuit problem..........


Any leads?

fuses blow for a reason... are you sure the pump was wired correctly?

Yeap, cause I'm using the OEM pump wiring for the Holley pump. Today I went to a local autopart store and she didin't wanted to start neither, I checked the fuse and it wasn't blown, I started pushing it and moving it side to side until the pump came on and I was able to leave!

But the thing is that she keeps doing it whenever she wants!! I'm already tired of almost every time that I want to leave off from someplace I gotta be playing with that damn fuse!!!!

from what you described it sounds like you have a bad electrical connection...

you might wanna check the contacts for the fuse (make sure no corrosion and that they are clean on the fuse ends and the terminals)... also check to make sure the wires to the terminals are still in tact...
