    I'm thinking about installing an electric fuel pump on my truck. My truck is still a 6 volt system. Does anyone know where I can buy a 6 volt 2 to 3 psi pump?

    Mac's Auto Parts out of Lockport, NY sells a 2-3# 6v electric pump. Speedway and Summit sell 5-8# 6v pumps and a regulator to set whatever pressure you want.

    Thanks Evan,

    When I lived in NY Mac's was about 10 miles from me. I restored a 30-31 Model A pickup with many parts from them. They have pretty much anything to restore old fords. I'll give them a call.

    Never , EVER get suckered into using one of those crappo 4 # pumps with a pressure regulator ~ they cut the flow down too , always a bad thing .

    VOLUME is what a Carburated engine needs , NOT PRESSURE ! .
