Hi, I am looking at fitting a low pressure fuel pump to prime the fuel bowls. Unfortunately when the car has sat for over a week, it is impossible to start the engine. It appears the fuel evaporates and the mechanical pump just can't move the fuel.
I am still going to use the mechanical pump to run the engine after it starts so this electric pump will just run for a few seconds to prime the carb. The electric pump will need to be a pump where the mechanical pump can pull fuel through even when the electric pump is not running. Also, it will only need to be a low 2-3 psi pump, that way no regulator should be needed.
I am interested to see if anyone has dome something similar? If so then what parts did you use and were there any issues encountered?
Thanks
Drew
