Carter Electric Fuel Pumps

Post by Kent124 »

Are Carter electric fuel pumps any good? Amazon has them for $38 that are designed for Carbed cars.

You need to know what psi the pump is rated for. Some carbureted fuel pump have too high pressure for the Webers.
Depending on who you ask Webers need between 2-4 psi. I would not want much more than 4 psi.

Hey Kent I used a carter pump on my 78 spider with a DFEV 32/36 carb worked great, only thing I did was put in a 10 amp fuse and a toggle switch with a light to let me know when it is on .
