Define “gay” no not literally, as in what symptoms are you experiencing. lol

If the fuel pump is intermittently working, that probably means a bad connection. Pop off the fuel sending unit cover and inspect the connections. Post a pic for more help. Be careful with the bolts, they love to disintegrate, fucking Nissan.

If the fuel pump stopped working all together, check for voltage with a multimeter on the corresponding wires, and continuity across the terminals.

Hope that helps. If you’re short on money and need a stock fuel pump, I have one that I pulled from my 240, its in perfect condition, pulled from a mint rust free tank, and whirrs up perfectly with a 9V battery. The sending unit’s top surface was rusted to FUCK though, that’s what usually happens on S13’s.

Clean all related electrical connections and grounds before you start replacing components.

Never solder fuel sending unit connections while the gas tank is open and stinking of vapours…or light a ciggie for that matter.

Safety first, kids.
