FUEL PUMP

Post by unwritten »

I have adapted the VT commodore fuel pump into my GQ fuel tank (as you do... :roll: ) but broke the fitting in the middle of the three. I looked in the manual but doesn't tell me what it's for (whether high pressue or return etc). Would I need to buy another pump? Can anyone help me?

You might get away with sleeveing it with a bit of brass tube and araldite (or some other petroluem resistant glue) as there should only be a few psi pressure in the tank.

I thought it may have carried too much pressure for a hose and clamp because of the "o-ring snap lock" setup on it.

THANK YOU
