twin fuel pump conversion

adem.csl · 07-04-2013, 11:14 PM

I was looking at a thread regarding fuel starvation on track.no body had a conclusion as to what the solution was in the end?if anyone has done this conversion I'm interested in doin the same.just wondered how it plums in.do fuel pump electric wires run onto the existing pump wires and does the fuel line t into the fuel feed line or into the tank.thanx

There was no conclusion to it.I don't think twin pump would work anyway.a swirl pot system is whats needed or a fuel cell.both more expensive than simply filling the tank and not dropping past half way.

I thought thee was a simple 'twin pick up' to the single pump upgrade option!

just a simple pic but makes sense.lol

so basically the pic is of a tank wid 2 pumps sitting in fuel.now second pic is of what would happen as you hit a hard right corner on low tank.both pumps would starve as they both have same amount of fuel.UNLESS the left side stays full and only works when cornering?????then there is a wieght difference making left side heavier.so really best option is to sit the pump in a bowl that stays full at all times.
