Fuel pressure/Bluebird electric pump

[Ken Abraham]

Listers, My electric fuel pump is supplying too much pressure and is flooding the (twin SU) carbies. I have three options, fit a pressure regulator, modify the output pressure of the one I have or fit an SU pump. I do not want to use an SU pump because I don't want the unreliability of (more) British rubbish.   1.What do I need to know about pressure regulators? Where can I get an adjustable one? Do any cars come with them standard? 2.Has anyone modified a bluebird pump to reduce the static pressure but keep the same flowrate?   If you don't know about Bluebird electric fuel pumps then the following questions will seem odd....   3.Can the plunger part of the electric fuel pump can be pulled apart? I would like to remove and fiddle with the output valve. 4.Should there be a washer between the small spring and the plunger body?   Regards, Nick 1978 Datsun Stanza         --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
