Here's my old thread:

SR20DET bogs and dies

Got a new fuel pump today and my car died and wouldn't start just as I pulled into my driveway.

Ok, great. Well, at least I'm at home and I have the part I need.

Out with the old pump and in with the new.

Still won't start. Cranks but won't turn over. I got lucky a couple times and it fired up and seemed to be fine.. then it died 3 seconds later.

Any suggestions?

ECU's throwing a code 55:

55 - Other Malfunction. CONSULT Terminal Required

I can get it running now by flooring the accelerator pedal while starting it, but like before, it dies after 5-10 seconds now.

fuel filter? bad injectors, i wanna say backwards fuel lines but when i did that mine wouldnt even start (fuel lines backwards, return line comes off the regulator)

Think the cylinders got flooded somehow cuz it only fired up when I floored the gas while starting it. Either way.. I started it again now by doing that and it didn't die! Hurrah! Seems to run fine now so maybe the excess fuel got burnt and/or dried?
