fuel pump questions

  1. Hi all,

    On the fuel pump which has a 'bump' on the top (the one shown in the link below), can someone pls tell me which in the inlet (from tank) & which is the outlet (to carbs) as I cannot see any markings on mine (engine not in yet!).

    Also, looking on the interweb, there seem to be fuel pumps for generator models & alternator models - what's the difference in terms of fuel pump?

    Thanks

    Believe inlet is the side one. And I think the difference for alt and gen is to accommodate larger alternator.
     
  3. remember to check what length fuel pump rod you have/need for the pump you buy....mismatching can result in all manner of not-niceties
