Fuel Pump quick quest

[D7AKE]

If you fit a electric fuel pump to a nova on carbs, do you need to fit a fuel pump regulator?

Si :confused:

Right thanx so what fuel pressure do I need to be running on a 1400 with twin 40's and is the standard pump set to a specific psi if so anyone know what it is? :thumb:

Im not sure,my mate was going to put a 1300sport engine in a 12spi and he said he would have to use a fuel pressure regulator thats all i know im afraid.Also this should be in mechanical:thumb:

iirc the carbs need a max feed of about 3psi, just check with somebody else first tho.

Any more than 3psi and well you can imagine what happens... :D

You need 3-5psi for carbs.

It depends which electric pump you use, some are low pressure pumps....
