[QUOTE="mike202, post: 634563, member: 17202"] ICT carbs are a bit sensitive to fuel pressure if it’s more than around 3-4psi. I have a mech pump at the moment and as everything is running ok I don’t really want to change it. The push rod in it was adapted by Abel when I had the new engine. If I was going to put an electric fuel pump on it would be a Carter pump. It’s good to know they don’t allow fuel to seep through when they’re switched off. I have a VW Aircooled works fuel cut off solenoid above the gear box and it’s been good so far. It’s a good safety feature and also reassuring that the fuel pipes in the engine aren’t under pressure from a full fuel tank when the engines off. [/QUOTE]
