steve_d Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Don't forget you will need a decent fuel filter between pump and engine. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid_From_Hell Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Don't forget that some fuel pumps 'suck' vs others 'push', you need the right one so that the pump doesn't pass away soon after fitting it, the in tank RR ones can be had 2nd hand are are quite modifyable The RR pump itself goes to around 120 PSI but the PRV drops this to around mid 30's too weak a pump ie one at 40 psi flat out may not pump enough to keep it happy at full chat Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
