Alldodge you were correct no voltage. Chased it back and found a bad fuse. Pump primed and started leaking from the top. Took it apart to see which oring was leaking and broke the plastic piece that holds the electrical post onto the housing.

i cannot find these parts and don't want to buy a new $740 fuel pump for two plastic pieces. Anyone got these pieces? Or an old VST that needs built?

Have a VST that I removed from my 502 when repowering, it was working without issues. If your in the lower 48 I'll sale it for $350 shipped.

You could also change the VST to a cool fuel or other pump if your willing to reroute the fuel lines

Ouch those stupid plastic pieces are one expensive mistake. I think I'll look around for a little bit.

It says 8 and 10 but it also shows 8 to be the fuel pump and other pieces. Its the one with two marks pointing to both at the top of the electrical connectors. Its the two pieces that the electrical connection actually sit on and the nuts screw down to.
