Gum shoe, thanks for the mug shot. Looks like a real shady character if you ask me.

In decades past, before fuel injection became the norm, I installed similar pumps (also made by Carter) on Suburbans, near the fuel tanks, as booster pumps to supply the mechanical fuel pump. Suburbans were notorious for vapor lock problems, the fuel tank was at the back of the vehicle, a rather long vehicle (!) and the mechanical fuel pump had a hard time "sucking" the fuel that distance.

Carter makes an excellent electric fuel pump, a centrifugal model, rated for 110 gph at 5 psi. Its a bit bulky in size, but runs quiet & is as reliable as a claw hammer. I have no experience with this solenoid pump as the main pump in a fuel system.

I was curious if the pump was one of the AC brand diaphragm pumps because they are known to be noisy & unreliable.

My 2 cents...

your "pumped up" fiend on the PIBB, George
