Where did my CEL go?
I have noticed after going from turbo to stock my CEL light won't even light up when I turn the key on. I find this to be a huge problem if something goes wrong and no light comes on. Any suggestions on how to get it back on?
Also on a stock motor, no bolt ons, will a walboro 255 fuel pump cause the car to be a gas hog and run rich? Thanks

When you were turbo you probably had to run a standalone engine management unit. With that unit there is no such thing as a check engine light as the vehicle was running on a separate computer. Have you turned the get to ignition on engine off and looked for the light to illuminate? Are you back to a stock ECU?

The 255 will not affect the fueling unless it is overflowing the regulator causing the pressure to increase. Even with a slight increase however the factory ECU will trim it out without any problems. You should be okay.
