Fuel pumps ?
« on: March 20, 2013, 06:54:26 PM »
Whats the difference between the glass top and metal top fuel pumps?

I am going to remove the electric fuel pump that is on my 3A.

Here you go! Everything you ever wanted to know about fuel pumps... http://cj3apage.com/forum-yabb/YaBB.pl?num=1362623364

IMO, if you're not running vacuum wipers, the single action glass bowl is the way to go. That's what I have on my two.

I did. There is a huge difference between the metal top double action and the glass top double action. The difference between the single actions is obvious, the top.  ;D That's it.
