No. 2wd pump is a gravity fed pump that lives outside the tank . You could feed that standard lift pump straight into the gravity one though, which would be okay for around 300bhp .

right o... cheers mike


and how the fook is that achived??

also, how will it give more pressure?

is it case of a bit of fuel hose from existing pump to 2wd one, then 2wd one to normal fuel line?

what about the fuel return??

you got any diagrams at all mate??

The fuel return would be as is, you're just adding the gravity pump into the system, that gives it the required flow you are after. Nothing else changes.

I had this set up on my Escort running 400bhp (lift pump feed direct into 044 gravity pump). I only changed the lift pump to feed in to a swirl pot before hand, when I fitted the eight 803s...

Dan,
Yep that's it.

It would be best to give it a seperate power supply with it's own relay etc...

soz ran lol.

mike, would i still go via the fuse box for the existing pump?? have an inline fuse and what else would the relay go to? switched ignition?

cant think at the mo....

The Escort Cossie has seperate relays for the fuel pump that are not in the fuse box, so it is easy. However, just use your common sense and make sure it is correctly fused and wired up to an ignition live as the OE item.

That's because you're the BIGGEST eejit out there . I don't know anyone as indecisive as you, and that includes all my female friends .

You can't even decide what to do about a set of fucking hoses .
