check to make sure the feed line isnt getting kinked and burning out the pump intermitently

Or the main relay perhaps, could need to be resoldered.
My walbro 255 doesn't have fuel pickup issues like you guys are saying, I can run that thing down almost to E before it starts to sputter. I had to order just the pickup, sock, and wiring separately though because I bought the pump off a friend that was meant to go in an EG, so maybe the 2-piece pickup/sock combo I have is longer than most.

It's located behind the dashboard on the driver's side, pretty much behind where the little pop down coin tray is. Take the tray out and you'll see it off to the left hand side bolted to the body of the car IIRC.
