Did you replace all the fuel filters? It sounds like you have a clogged filter and the new pump was strong enough to force some fuel in.....

Thanks for choosing FixYa and welcome. I would say you have an electrical issue somewhere. I have went through similar problems myself. You may have a bad relay or faulty fuel injectors. Check all your wiring around the fuel pump and get some voltage readings on a voltage meter. This can lead to more electrical failures if left untreated. You need to check for spark and check the fuel pressure on your vehicle. Check the plugs and wires. Once you determine the spark and fuel pressure, which ever one is off, begin to test that system. Fuel filter, pump, injectors, fuel lines, relays, sensors, and wiring harness if the fuel is off. Check plugs, wires, coils, coil packs, distributor, distributor cap, rotor, cam sensor, crank sensor, wiring harnesses. You could have a problem with the PCM possibly. All parts need to be tested correctly to determine the cause. Could be a bad wire or loose connection. Check everything.

Pull the pump and check to see if the baffle in the fuel tank has come loose. Over time sometimes the baffle in the tank comes free and knocks against the pump causing it to short and damaging the pump itself. Unfortunately if that is the problem you will have to replace the tank. There is no way to remove the baffle or re-attach it.

The pump is in the tank, so you will need to drop the tank or take the bed off to get access.

My 1993 nissan pickup has problems starting when cold outside on warm days no problem already replaced starter battery battery cable and still when its cold it wont start

There are a few thing that can cause this problem. Not knowing what engine you have all I can give you is generic things to check. Fuel filter, make sure it flows well; spark plugs, make sure they are in good shape; air filter, make sure it is in good shape. Beyond that I need the engine to go deeper into it.

1995 nissan pickup truck fuel problem

Fuel injected or carb? Make sure fuel line itself is clear. Some pumps are designed to self regulate (carb systems) some continually pump and a psi regulator sends back the excess fuel back to the tank (fuel inj systems) If the line is obstructed then pump can't deliver fuel fulltime.

If you think pump is not on consistent, try running a dedicated wire through a switch directly to the pump. If it works then you are looking for an electrical fault going to pump. Good luck.
