does it suck fuel? my tank is lower than the engine by 2 feet?? will it work?

Yes but its better to fill the lines first to protec the fuel pump , remember the gasoline works as a lubricant .. Just be carefull on that.. Other than that the fuel pump works great

The tank on my John Deere riding mower is behind the seat and a little lower than the engine. I mounted the pump right at the lower front corner of the tank and bottom of the engine. It started it right up on about the second roll of the starter. Yes it sucks fuel just like one on a car only is a smaller output for the small engines. Mine is a 14hp.

ALL those answers are wrong. Check West Marine's web site or Atwood's site. The tank is vent-less to comply with EPA standards. You may need a new style fuel line. The previous answers may work, but are against the law and dangerous. There is also a video on y tube explaining this.

Unable to find documentation on pump; you will have to look; I know I had seen the specs before, some where My application is sucking straight out of a tank into a main floor of a cabin... it works great

Yes, fill the water tank on the engine and push the small plastic pump handle on the engine and it works very well.

It certainly will. Just turn on the water before you start the engine. Never run the engine with out water, even for 2 seconds. I actually prefer the more simpler version of this item. There are les parts to it and since the hose connects to the side, it is easier to use. It isn't necessary to feed water to both sides, it's all going to the same place once in the drive unit anyway.

I'm not sure, but I know this is for a fuel injected engine. A carburetted engine will run at a much lower pressure. My guess is that it won't

It would probably work, but you would have to set the fuel to air ratio to be safe. Maybe install larger injectors to get more fuel to match air. I have seen people use lawn blowers as blowers to get more power.

Carb float sticks, so fuel leaks bad... I converted to tri-fuel, no issues on propane. Before I had to take apart the carb each time and fix the float.

This work for your tank, but also you need a sender unit like this:http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000MTCRAA/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1424974300&sr;=8-1&keywords;=universal+sender+fuel&dpPl;=1&dp;ID=41oqPxVAlGL&ref;=plSrchπ=AC_SY200_QL40

It should work for gas? However not quite sure what gas would do to the hoses you have to hook up to it?

That has never happened to me and I don't know what the problem is. Perhaps there is a vacuum in the fuel tank and if you uncap the fuel tank and equalize the air pressure before refueling it should work.

Yes assuming you have the proper regulator, and supporting fuel plumbing. Keep I'm mind pumps are better suited to push fuel instead of suck it.

It should work. I was losing a couple of gallons a day and it took care of the problem.

It seems that if you overfill the fuel tank, the gas makes it's way into the vent and and then drains thru the hose back into the air cleaner assembly. Not the greatest design, but I drained some fuel from the tank and now the problem is solved.. Thanks for you input anyhow.

This fuel pump will work fine. I replaced mine with the same pump. Runs great at full throttle to low idle.

Yes, in fact the manual states is must be under the tank. Without at least a couple feet difference in height it can't get enough pressure to work properly.

I have not a clue, if the arm is long enough to go to the bottom of the tank,it might. But the thing you have to know is,whats the ohms on the gauge,if it's the same as the sender,you'll get an accurate fuel reading, if it isn't, you won't. Massey probably still has those available,bite the bullet and pay the price,you run out of fuel in the middle of 500 acres and it's a long walk back home,besides having to prime the engine.
