Fuel Pump Question
Can someone clear this up. I have 83 5.0 conv. I know there is a fuel pump on the engine block but, is there also a electric fuel pump in the tank. Do they have two?

I've had a 85 GT and a 84 GT and I cannot remember any return lines except for the emissions crap but to my knowledge nothing returned to the gas tank.
Where are you looking at? There should be two line on the pump. one from the tank and the other to the carb. Your car is carborated right, meaning it wasn't converted. I know in 85 the convertibles had TBI and in 86 they converted to Speed Density. ------------------ Michael Wigton 1989 351 Windsor 1964 1/2 Convertible |

I quess what I'm asking is that there is no electric fuel pump on the carburated 83 mustangs. True? Just the sender unit and the vapor return line on the tank.
Thanks, PM |
