CrashBangWallop Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 I'm putting an RS Turbo into my Westie so, I need to upgrade the fuelling. I'm using my current facet pump as a lift pump to a swirl pot and then a gravity-fed, high pressure pump to the EFI. Can anyone suggest a suitable fuel pump and swirl pot, please? Plus any company suggestions/prices would be lovely? I've got a lot of catalogues but, they all mean nothing unless I know what I'm looking for I was told the swirl pot would need two ins and two outs (in from facet - out to hi pressure pump - fuel return to pot - overflow from pot to tank) I suppose the last one is in case I don't have a fuel return already in my tank. Alternatively, I was also told that I could split the tank breather pipe and use that as a return. Thanks, Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why dont you do what I did get a pice of aly pipe from westfield and fit it in between the tank filler neck and the cap get a pice of 8mm pipe welded on to this and bingo one easy fuel return and it works quite well.

CrashBangWallop Posted February 3, 2005 Author Share Posted February 3, 2005 Cheers, guys. I considered one off Ebay but, I didn't want risk the pump dying and starving my engine. I like the idea of the ali pipe behind the filler cap Thanks, Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
