Frequently Asked Questions:

1. What is the ideal fuel pressure for a carbureted SBF? Generally, 6 PSI provides optimal fuel pressure for most stock and mild-performance carbureted Ford Small Blocks. However, always consult your carburetor manufacturer’s recommendations.
2. How does a mechanical fuel pump compare to an electric one? Essentially, mechanical pumps are engine-driven and provide consistent flow for carbureted setups, often simplifying wiring. Conversely, electric pumps offer higher flow rates and consistent pressure regardless of RPM, which is often necessary for higher-horsepower or fuel-injected applications.
3. What are common signs of a failing mechanical fuel pump? Typically, symptoms include rough idle, stalling, reduced engine power, hesitation during acceleration, or difficulty starting. Furthermore, you might notice fuel leaks from the pump itself.
4. Is installation difficult? While replacing a mechanical fuel pump requires some mechanical aptitude, however, many experienced DIY mechanics can accomplish it. Ultimately, ensure you follow proper safety procedures, especially when working with fuel lines.
5. Do you ship fuel pumps throughout South Africa? Yes, absolutely, we offer reliable nationwide delivery of fuel pumps and engine components across South Africa from our location in Alberton, Gauteng.
6. Can this pump support a highly modified engine? Generally, for highly modified or forced induction SBF engines, a higher-volume mechanical pump or an electric fuel pump system might be required to adequately supply fuel at increased demands.
