    Maybe they're sending you the cheap knock-offs.

    Buy one from Racetronix.com along with a hotwire kit. You may not be running a large enough power wire and its burning them up because of it, that or you're just running the tank on empty all the time and they're getting too hot.

    walbro has a bad batch of the 255, i think mine is bad too, takes a few cranks to start.

    lets say the 96 fuel pump will work, is there an adapter to adapt the stock (96) line to the 03 fuel rail (different fittings)?

    yeah russel makes some. my 255 would lose pressure and would only make 10 psi but like red said i think its not getting enough current through the stock wiring
