Anyone know a good brand 6V electric fuel pump ? I put an Airtex E 8011 on and it lasted just long enough for the one year warranty to run out .

    Get a Borg-Warner pump-EP-11 6 volts or 12 volts EP-12B. So far 130,000 on mine and no problems. Walt.

    I use a Carter P60430. This is a 12v dc motor turns at half the speed and put out @15 gph, 4-6 psi. Same length as your Airtex BUT a mech pump will NOT draw fuel through it when( if) you run only on the mechanical and it is mounted inline. If that is your intention, a paralel line is necessary. Summit sells these for $53 + shipping. Also a carter rotory vane is good, cost @90+.

    I agree with Walt. A friend just got an 6V EP-11 from NAPA, and it goes right into the line like a fuel filter. No mounting required (note: they've sold another type pump in the recent past with this same part number).

    Hey 37T 2,

    I got mine from NAPA its a Federal Mogul (Carter I think) pump.

    Part number P-4259. Its in line and I use it as an auxillary. My regular fuel pump pulls through it just fine. I use it after sitting and when I start to experience vapor lock. Put it on over a year ago and so far no problems!

    Good luck,

    Jeff
