Efi 2 Carb

Scrapla · 07-21-2006, 02:38 PM

I just got that fuel pump and installed it a few weeks ago I would hate to do have to replace it. Couldnt I just use the bypass regulator, this car is not a serious track car its for weekend fun around town.

That pump is capable of putting out 60+ PSI at full flow, and you only need 7! Ain't gonna bypass that much pressure bro. I've heard of it being done, but I wouldn't trust it, one "ooops" in the regulator, and you've got fuel in your oil, cuz it'll blow right past the needle/seat on the carb.

Yank it and sell it on ebay?

The EFI fuel pumps are high pressure, not high volume.. you need more volume with a carb.
