replacement electric fuel pump
Posted: Mon Jul 27, 2020 1:21 pm
Hi all, I have replaced my mechanical fuel pump with and electric one and mounted it on the pedal box. It was one I had hanging around as a spare for my previous car which had a temperamental SU pump. Its a cheap and cheerful Chinese thing which functions fine but it is very noisy and I can't live with it. It makes a loud ticking/clacking noise which would probably be ok if it were rear mounted, but not where it is in the engine bay.
Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations for a reasonably quiet and fairly compact pump? It would also need to be fairly low pressure, the one I have is 3-5 psi which seems to be about right for the Strombergs.
An SU size/style pump would be more difficult to fit in the space I've got. There are plenty of pumps which would appear to do the job, but until its installed I wouldn't know if its quieter or not - grateful for any advice. Thanks.
