Will this pump keep fuel pressure to engine? will it run constant or just to pressure is built up?

Mine runs constantly. Was surprised at how quiet it was. Has a slight change in speed when fuel bowls are full. No high pitch whine like some electric pumps. Reminds me of an aquarium aerator,slow and steady.

No fuel pump, I transferred my old engine fuel pump. I needed to swap out the oil filler tube to provide vacuum for the pump drive.

NO...this pump is for light weight oils like diesel...you will need another type of pump for gas.

If there is no pressure loss in the system I believe it'll work fine. Also, I don't think this is a permanent continuous duty pump. R.V., boat installations - fine, not a constant home use pump. If used that way I don't suspect it'll last years.

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.

Look up you fuel pump on google or on Amazon by year, make, model of the vehicle. It will tell the correct info on the exact pump to buy. Don't be afraid too look at 2 or 3 sites to be sure you have the right info before ordering your pump.

No, this pump will keep pumping until it burns up. Or gets the power shut off. You'll have to have some sensor in the tank to shut it off

If your pump runs off a 12 volt battery or 6 volt { standard automotive battery} it will work just fine

It will give you pressure on demand. I am amazed at what a value this pump seems to be.

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

This pump runs at about 3.5 psi, even without a regulator in some applications. Some carburetors may have different pressure requirements, so be sure to verify that this is the right pressure for your carburetor. The fuel delivery should be more than enough to meet the demands of a 2-barrel carburetor on that 4 cylinder engine.

I believe it will bolt up to your engine but it IS NOT the same as your pump.

Just installed this past Friday. Watch the spacing between the pistons, and you should be fine. Mine is finally pumping up too 120 psi before shutoff.

If you need a lot of pressure you can use this. It wouldn't take long for it to go through 5 gallons. Are you going to turn the pump on only when cleaning? Or will it run consistently?

I bought two pumps---one 6v and one 12v. To get the voltage I Googled 6 volt electric fuel pump, and found that the E8011 is a 6v two wire unit, so it can be used with either positive or negative ground systems. If your application is automotive you probably won't need a pressure regulator as this is low pressure pump. A small engine application might need the regulator--my Briggs and Kohler didn't, but some may. Good luck.

Actually works on both. The pressure is reduced by one half when you use it in a six volt system. I use these all the time in my restoration shop when I am adding a fuel pump to earlier six volt cars. The addition of ethanol to gas has increased the occurrence of vapor lock on early vehicles. Adding a fuel pump back by the tank overcomes this. This pump produces about 3-4 psi on 6 volts. I haven't had any starvation problems due to volume on some pretty large engines. I have this pump working on a 1937 Cadillac limo, a 1933 v-12 Pierce Arrow, and numerous other smaller applications in the late 20's to early 40's. It should do what you want to do just fine. It's is a nice quiet, reliable pump. Actually works on both. The pressure is reduced by one half when you use it in a six volt system.

From AirTex 'Universal_Fuel_Pump_TSB_Web.pdf', the E84389 is a 12 volt pump with a pressure of 5-7psi and a flow of 72GPH, with 3/8" hose inlet/outlet size. Works with gas or diesel.
