2022年3月19日 · Some pumps will not allow "pull through" now and I've lost track of which are which. I'm also not excited about having to examine oil pressure losses by dumping the fuel pump internals (something else I'm not 100% of either way). Simple. Easy. Low tech. Primer pump. I also don't have a massive bank of relays running everything.

2015年6月26日 · Split the fuel line as close to the tank as is convenient, install a T, one side of the T becomes you stock fuel line. The other side goes immediately to an electric pump. From the pump run a new line to a newly installed T between your old mechanical pump and the carb.

2011年2月17日 · Push. The way most electric fuel pumps are designed, they operate more efficiently that way. It also needs to be mounted lower than the fuel tank if possible so that it stays primed. It is okay to wire the pump through an oil pressure sensor. But with a carb'd car, the engine will continue to run for a little while after the engine loses oil ...

2013年2月24日 · My 56 Cadillac has a 350 with an Edelbrock 600 cfm carb. on it. The problem is I went through two electric fuel pumps in less than one year. I drove to VLV last year, which killed one pump, the second later in the summer.The car has the original gas tank with the fuel line coming out from the bottom left front corner of the tank.

2024年9月1日 · For any electric pump [including those noisy "facet" pumps] I've found that USED soft "almost perished" rubber anti--vibration mounts used on car A/C condensers are the quietest. I usually grab a few from the local "Pick-A-Part" New Anti Vibration mounts aren't as good as used

2019年11月6日 · I have been running pulse type pumps in my older cars. One of the pumps is a Bendix, that has been working faithfully for 50 years, an the other ones are cheaper import pumps, one of which has been working well for approximately 10 years. I have had two pump failures in 50 years of using electric pumps.

2014年1月20日 · Most electric fuel pumps (I don't know of any that don't) require a filter before the pump. This should be course in nature, or around 100 micron. A fine final filter before the carbs is a good idea, and in the 10-40 micron range.

2012年3月30日 · I like putting relays on things like fuel pumps, electric fans, and high and low beam headlights. I have run electric pumps in the past without one, but I find the pump gets more consistent current through a relay. It also takes some of the load off of the switch. Don

2011年5月21日 · hi my nephew had the same problem with his holley fuel pump. advanced auto sells a airtex 12v fuel pump part #E8012S it worked great on his car and was a fair price and alot quieter.and under $50 i believe.

2018年12月1日 · If your old bellows pump clicks wildly when you put power to it, yet does not flow any fuel, 99 percent of the time it is a failed bellows. You can buy a few bellows kits and rebuild your pump every couple years, or check out the FR Series pumps - they don't have a bellows.
