Yes, there is fake Walbro in the market.

The fake is only noisy buzzing sound but when WOT, it cannot deliver enough fuel.

I forgot how to tell the difference (there is webstie somewhere which explains how to see the fake and real), The best bet is to buy from reputable tuner shops.

There are many fake stuffs in the market now.

Becareful before buying.

-bring some lawyer gonna be fren to ksp and ask?
-go alone to ksp and ask?
-just let it be so someone else will face the same problem too?

but for now i think i need to go and make it sure its the fake one.but how?...i did see about the bottom part of the fuel pump.but the picture indicates the fake fuel pump right?...not the real one?...what to do laa...

ok...maybe its the nerve in my body that i cant wait to post before doing things.called ksp and tell that guy about the story and stuff.and they mentioned about the way i pasang that thing could be salah.so i dont know la kan.and mentioned about the low voltage supply before redo the rewiring.

-could the low voltage supply damage the f**king pump?i dont think so.what do u guys think?...that guy mentioned that it could happened.

so next week i think i need to be ready with some cash and go there for a check.hope its going to turn right.better be.

bro,

your problem solved already ka? what fuel regulator you are using? SARD fuel regulator got imitation also.. especially when you buy online or from accessories shop.
I am using walbro too... when I was using an old EVO fuel pump my pressure drops to 2bar when WOT @ >4500rpm... after changing to WALBRO... the pressure when up to 5.5bar . Idle setting at vacuum (turbo ma...) is at 3bar
