Casbar Posted April 28, 2002 Share Posted April 28, 2002 Fuel Pump - A lot of the guys recommend the Weber fuel pump. I have used a facet red top, which some have had trouble with, but mine has been ok for 2 years now!. You remove the mechanical pump, and use a blanking plate to cover the hole (avail from Burtons as are most of the bits). The pump should be mounted as close to the tank as possible, mine is mounted on the rear bulkhead just below the tank outlet. You should also use an inline filter between the tank and the inlet to the pump. I then mounted the filter king in the engine bay. Its best to have a fuse in the power line, I ran the power from the ignition switch. Some have also put a fuel cutout relay in the system, in case of accident. I haven't, but I do have a battery cut out switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felix.klauser Posted April 28, 2002 Share Posted April 28, 2002 I have a brand new Facet silver top that I bought but never used for sale for £40; Demon Thieves price is £60 plus VAT. It's rated to 150 bhp: perfect for most Crossflows. Please contact me via e-mail if you're interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
