Fuel Pump / Overfill Gas tank accident

No fuel pump codes and was running MHD 25% E85 map.. No fuel pump upgrade.

thanks for the reply. The only change that I really noticed is the cars idle is a little rough. I reset the Lambada and octane rating flashback is stage 1 it's been running smooth for the most part. When I adjusted the idle and mhd settings to 750 it did take the idle away a little. I am getting 2fca 2fda shadow codes. They say high pressure and then german.. all the research that I've done on these two codes have nothing to do with the fuel pump though really weird and low pressure fuel sensor is running in the 70% range which is normal I think
man..

your fuel pump won't be affected. You overfilled and it flooded the charcoal canister. Will take a long time to dry up. May cause other emissions/evap errors, not sure. I'd just wait it out.

Been getting High Pressure shadow codes but inactive. Going to clear through impa. Fuel pressure running 70's -80's and think that is normal. No signs of fuel pump failure thus far!
