Electric fuel pump onto carby motor

Post by 4wd_Haggis »

Gday people just wondering if any one has or if any one knows how, to fit a electric fuel pump to a carby fed 22r.
I have heard rumours of it bein done and would like to do it to my lux so really steep ledges and hill dont cause me to stall and roll......

3RZ-FE it good power and efi so angles won't give you dramas.

Yes its cheaper to fit an electric fuel pump to a carby motor than doing an engine swap/efi conversion but it won't fix your stalling problem on steep angles. Your problem is in the carby not your fuel supply to the carby.
