This Evil Energy Fuel Pump for Carb perfectly balances low pressure and high flow for 12V carburetor systems. It provides a safe 14 PSI to prevent flooding, while its powerful 345-370 LPH flow fuels your engine. Built from durable aluminum, this pump is made to work reliably in any weather.

Carb Fuel Pump vs. EFI Fuel Pump: Which One Should You Buy?

Choosing an electric fuel pump for carburetor systems instead of an EFI fuel pump mainly depends on the required fuel pressure and the engine’s fuel-delivery system. An electric fuel pump for carb applications provides low-pressure fuel delivery, while an EFI pump generates the substantially higher pressure required by electronic fuel injectors.

Installing a high-pressure electric fuel pump on carburetor-equipped vehicles without the correct regulator can overpower the carburetor’s needle and seat, causing flooding, excessive pressure or fuel leakage. For a vehicle that will remain carbureted, a purpose-built electric carb fuel pump is generally the simpler and more cost-effective choice. A typical carburetor fuel pump system requires approximately 4–7 PSI at the carburetor, while many port-injection and throttle-body EFI systems operate at approximately 40–60 PSI or higher.

Choose a fuel pump for carburetor systems when the vehicle currently uses a carburetor and no EFI conversion is planned. The best electric fuel pump for carburetor applications should match the carburetor’s specified pressure, engine fuel demand, operating voltage and intended fuel type.

A 12 volt electric fuel pump for carburetor systems may produce more pressure than the carburetor can accept. Pairing it with an adjustable carburetor fuel pressure regulator allows the final pressure to be set according to the carburetor manufacturer’s requirements. Compatible 100-micron and 40-micron inline fuel filters can help protect both the pump and carburetor from contamination.

For a dedicated carbureted build, select a low pressure fuel pump for carb engines or consider a complete carbureted fuel-system bundle containing a matched pump, regulator and filter.

If an EFI conversion is planned, purchasing an EFI pump, filter and regulator kit may reduce the need to replace the fuel-delivery system later. However, a high-pressure EFI pump should not be connected directly to a carburetor, and a low-pressure carb pump cannot provide the pressure required by EFI.

Before purchasing an electric fuel pump for a carburetor, confirm:

• The engine uses a carburetor rather than EFI.

• The required operating pressure falls within the regulator’s adjustment range.

• The pump supplies sufficient flow at the intended pressure and voltage.

• The fuel type is compatible with the pump, filters, hoses and seals.

• The selected package contains the required fittings and mounting hardware.

Complete Carburetor Fuel Pump Accessories for Direct Installation

Designed for a straightforward installation, the supplied pump, fittings, seals and mounting hardware support a complete electric fuel pump for carburetor setup. They provide a practical replacement or upgrade solution for electric fuel pump for carb applications.

Core Fuel Pump Assembly

At the heart of the package is a 12V external pump suitable for anyone installing an electric fuel pump on carburetor-equipped vehicles. This electric carb fuel pump features a red mounting bracket and 3/8-inch NPTF female inlet and outlet ports.

The carburetor fuel pump transfers fuel from the tank to the carburetor while maintaining the low-pressure delivery required by compatible carbureted engines.

Quantity: 1 × fuel pump

Fuel Line Connections and Sealing

Two 3/8-inch NPTF to 5/16-inch hose-barb fittings connect the carb fuel pump to commonly used 5/16-inch fuel hoses. One fitting attaches to the inlet, while the other attaches to the outlet.

Two matching gaskets support leak-resistant connections throughout the fuel pump for carburetor installation. Reliable sealing is essential even when using the best electric fuel pump for carburetor applications.

Supplied components:

• 2 × 3/8-inch NPTF to 5/16-inch fittings

• 2 × gaskets

Secure Mounting Hardware

Two screws and two matching nuts secure the red bracket and keep the 12 volt electric fuel pump for carburetor systems firmly mounted.

Keeping the low pressure fuel pump for carb engines stable helps reduce vibration and movement during vehicle operation. Mount it on a strong metal surface near the fuel tank and away from exhaust components, moving parts and heavy road debris.

Supplied components:

• 2 × screws

• 2 × nuts

Protection During Shipping and Storage

Two orange caps protect the inlet and outlet from dust and debris before installation.

Remove both caps before connecting or operating the electric fuel pump for a carburetor. They are protective packaging components and must not remain on the pump during vehicle installation.

Quantity: 2 × protective caps

Fuel hoses, filters, clamps, wiring, fuse, relay and fuel-pressure regulator may need to be purchased separately.

How to Install an Electric Fuel Pump for a Carburetor

Installing an electric fuel pump for carburetor applications correctly helps maintain stable fuel delivery and protects the pump from contamination. A properly positioned electric fuel pump for carb engines can also reduce priming problems and inconsistent fuel pressure.

1. Select the mounting position

When installing an electric fuel pump on carburetor-equipped vehicles, mount it close to the fuel tank or fuel cell. Whenever possible, position the electric carb fuel pump below the lowest fuel level so fuel can flow naturally toward the pump.

2. Install the pre-filter

Install a 100-micron pre-filter between the fuel tank and the carburetor fuel pump inlet. This filter captures larger contaminants before they can enter and damage the carb fuel pump.

3. Install the post-filter

Place a 40-micron post-fuel filter between the outlet of the fuel pump for carburetor systems and the carburetor. Make sure the flow arrows on the pump and both filters point in the correct direction.

4. Connect the pressure regulator

The best electric fuel pump for carburetor applications should match the fuel-pressure requirements of the carburetor. For the return-style system shown in the diagram, fuel passes through the carburetor fuel line before reaching the bypass fuel pressure regulator. Excess fuel is then returned safely to the fuel tank.

5. Inspect and adjust the system

Connect the 12 volt electric fuel pump for carburetor applications through a correctly rated fuse and relay. Use fuel-compatible hoses, fittings and clamps throughout the installation.

Before operating the low pressure fuel pump for carb, make sure every connection is secure. After installing an electric fuel pump for a carburetor, complete the following checks:

• Prime the fuel system.
• Check every connection for leaks.
• Confirm that the pump and filter arrows follow the fuel-flow direction.
• Start the engine and monitor the fuel pressure.
• Adjust the regulator according to the carburetor manufacturer’s pressure specification.
