dictator27 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 If it didn't have gravity feed, this was the way it was done. The first make with a mechanical pump was Studebaker in 1928. Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickelroadster Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 This was the most common way to get gas to the carburetor from 1916 to about 1928 or 1930. These were used on way to many cars to mention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
