Fuel pump?

BIGOL880 · Dec 19, 2016

I had a bad gas tank on my Oliver 77, I mounted a tank on the front weight bracket lower then my carb. What is a good fuel pump to get the fuel back up to my carb now that my tank is lower?

Don't use a specific brand name but make sure i use a low pressure electric pump. 1-2.5 psi. More than that can override the carburetor inlet needle value and cause flooding. At least that is what has worked for me

We use a Holley with a regulator. You can set the psi to what you want. Got ours at Advance auto, But Summitt also has them. Don't forget to put a valve at the tank..

I got one at advanced auto last night, 2.5psi pump. What do you think, is it to much pressure?

Should be fine

No It will be fine. Wire it so when the motor is off so is it. Also plumb it with a shut off at the tank, then a in line filter, then the pump after the filter. Check to see if you need a fuse in the wiring?
