is it possible to put a external fuel pump on my 91 xj? i hate it that is in the tank,and i need to replace mine anway,is this possible?

 

yes a external fuel pump is do able but do you really want a fuel pump out in the elements where it can get dislogged by somethingon the trail spewing fuel every where

 

well thats y i was thinkin somewhere like the engine bay...my old 72 ford had its fuel pump on the side of the block and worked great and out of the elements

 

im sure its been done ,you going to have to remove the factory pump any way to let the other draw thru the line so theres no restriction.you might need to find out more about electric pumps most say in race cars are mounted as close to the tank as possible, like there meant for pushing not pulling of fuel

 

ima search for the best pump and and location but do you think i can still use the same tank?

 

yea you can use the same tank with a few modifications but it would be cool to get a fuel cell and put it in your trunk

 

I am putting a fuel cel in my rig as we speak. From everything I have read.. it is better to put the fuel pump as close to the fuel supply as possible. It pushes the fuel better then pulls the fuel. When I go back out to the garage.. I will get part number off of the pump I am using.. think it is out of an explorer. MIne is even wired so I can use the factory conection, and fuel sender.

 

thats cool,ill appritiate the part number

 

That was a mechanical pump, not the same as we use.

Anything is possible, just have to toss enough money at it.

 

ill be able to toss a little bit at it but not very much

 

The external pump will be the biggest expense here. Most likely.

Still, I was just saying.
