Electric Fuel Pump On Ebay

Jeff Smith: The simple answer is, yes, you can install a remote-mount electric pump and it will work. But there will be issues with this decision. I will assume you are going to convert to electronic fuel injection at the same time that you will install the electric fuel pump. A small, inline.

Loosen the hose clamps connecting the fuel line from your tank to the mechanical fuel pump installed on the driver's side of your engine. The fuel pump is typically located near the front of the engine block toward the bottom (but above the oil pan). Place a glass jar under the hose connections to the fuel pump and then pull the hoses off the fuel pump; catch any gas that is still in the line in the glass jar. Make sure you also disconnect the line from the fuel pump to the carburetor or fuel injection system, and remove that hose completely. Plug up the open connections in your mechanical fuel pump with hose stops. A hose stop is a molded rubber cap with a hose clamp that is attached as if you were connecting a hose except it works as a stopper to prevent anything from entering or leaving the fuel pump.

With the hose stops in place, your mechanical fuel pump is now disabled. Attach the black wire from the electric pump directly to the frame of the car by removing a nearby screw or bolt, passing it through the ring terminal at the end of the wire and then re-attaching the screw or bolt. This will ground the electric pump. Splice #12 wire to the red wire coming off the pump by twisting the bare wires together and covering the splice with electrical tape.

Run this wire to the fuse box and attach it to the ignition fuse with a spade terminal connector. This will turn your fuel pump on when your ignition is engaged. Cut the wire and crimp the terminal to the end with your electrical pliers.

Contents. Pump mountingElectric pumps were designed to push fuel, not pull it. Mount the pump as low and as near to the tank as possible without putting it so low that it would get damaged by highway debris.Mounting an electric fuel pump directly to the vehicle's frame or underbody, etc. Is not a good method for most vehicles. If you solid-mount the pump (bolt it directly to a frame member or other suitable structure of the car), it will transmit the noise and vibrations made by the pump into the sheet metal of the car and can make a pretty good racket that gets old to your ears after a while.One way to mount an electric fuel pump is to use rubber insulated muffler/exhaust pipe hangers. These are black rubber hangers that are about 3/4' thick and 1' wide and look like they may have been cut from an old truck tire. They have holes drilled in them along the length and a quarter-round metal piece riveted onto one end of the hanger that matches the exhaust pipe curvature.

The metal piece can be removed and as many of these hangars can be combined to give the size needed, then bolt the pump to the hangers to isolate the noise. One such hanger is the.

FittingsBarbed or AN-type fittings can be used with flexible fuel line like braided stainless steel lines for the fuel in/out at the pump, instead of steel hard lines. Use a 2-3 inch long piece of fuel-rated rubber hose to attach the inlet and outlet hard lines to the pump to further isolate the noise and vibration produced by the pump. Rollover protectionOne thing that should be noted when installing an electric fuel pump is that should there be an accident or a roll over, the pump will keep on pumping as long as the ignition is 'ON'. Therefore, it's recommended that some sort of rollover safety switch be installed to shut off the fuel pump for this very reason. For a couple bucks at the wreckers, you can usually find one in a late model Mustang or Crown Victoria, located in the trunk area by removing some of the trim panels by the driver side tail light. It's a small plastic box with two wires and a red reset button.

They also can be found in most '90s trucks and SUVs in the passenger side kick panel. Install this inline in the power wire from the pump to the ignition switch and you'll have the same protection as the newer Ford cars enjoy. Painless sells a rollover safety switch kit as well, p/n 80160.The pump can also be wired through an oil pressure switch that will shut the pump off any time the oil pressure falls below a predetermined pressure. However this is no guarantee the pump will shut off in a rollover, etc.

Because the engine may remain running. So do not rely solely on such a set-up. Mounting instructions on pdf.
