Thread: Electric Fuel Pump

Tweet

After a trip back from the Nats about 200 miles and a total of 900 miles the fuel pump has expired. I started to take the car out for a cruise today and noticed I could not here the pump and I checked the pressure and it was about 1 lb. It picked up but eventually quit. I would just change over to a mechanical but I mounted the A/C drier right in front of the block off plate.

I guess I have to make a decision whether to go back electric ($$$$) or move the drier and go mechanical???

Danny--get yourself a Mallory or Carter electric fuel pump. Summit pumps are the same design as a Holley and you experienced the same problem I had with a Holley. I went with a Mallory because guys on another site recommended them and they are similar in size to a Holley so the change over was easy. My buddy has had a Carter pump in his rod for over ten years and it is still going.
