tercelboy Regular Location: Townsville, Queensland Registered: September 2002	electronic fuel pump conversion on carby engine? (help) Mon, 26 January 2004 02:02 Guys, I want to put an electronic fuel pump in my 4A-C power Tercel as it is not only running out of juice (has bigger 32/36 Holley carby on it) but I would also like to remove the mechanical fuel pump from the valve train. I can get a facet pump off a friend for nothing. The return is built into the mechanical fuel pump. I was thinking of pumbing the electronic fuel pump at the fuel tank. Removing the mechanical fuel pump and return from the side of the head and plating it off. Then get a Y piece (smaller pipe for the return) and put it in the similar location to the mechanical fuel pump (lines stay roughly the same length). At the moment I have two standard universal fuel filters pumbed in before the mechanical fuel pump as the tank is showing its age and has had is share of dodgy fuel. Would I need to now run EFI filters and mayber run one before the electronic pump? Also I have been told if your battery is dead you wont be able to push start your car, but I assume if there is enough juice in the battery to kick over the fuel pump it would still start, wouldnt it? (not that I have ever had to do it, expect busted alternator). thanks for any help or advice guys. and if I have it sorted out already please post.
