Ok, so maybe iv'e just been unlucky, but i'm now on my 4th second hand bike fuel pump. Does anyone know of an alternative for carb use. ( it needs to cut off once the bowls are full)
MarkH loaned me his facet (square type ) which works fine at high revs, but floods the engine at idle as it overcomes the float valves.
I suppose i could price up a brand new bike one, but knowing bike dealers, i hate to think

Cheers

Should do the job at 2.1 PSI Pressure and 125 Litres per Hour Flow

I bought one for my Webers

You could maybe use any Carb pump and then an external adjustable pressure switch somewhere on the system to turn it on and off.

There's a few that would maybe be suitable on Ebay 12 or 240v either would work provided the contacts will take the amperage.

I use a Facet FAC40105 with my R1 carbs and don't have any flooding problems.

Hi Al theres got to be a reason why your going through pumps?

Iv'e got this theory, that they don't like being stood dry, maybe the fuel left in them goes crusty or something?. But to be fair the last one was a tenner from an autojumble, it was probably ancient, before it got chucked in a box, who knows with second hand stuff? Thats why i fancy a brand spanker.

Thanks for the input everyone

Al.
