So how would i fit an electric fuel pump for my twin hs2s without a regulator?

 

Fit one of these - brilliant pump !

 

Hardi electric pump all day.

I had been running SU Electric Pumps prior to swapping over to these, I and my friend's Moke that were fitted with the same SU pumps had no end of issues, even after swapping them out for another SU.  I doubt I'd ever go back to them.

So I have had a solid state facet pump for such a long time, its never played up however I decided to go back to a normal mechanical pump. - this one FUEL PUMP MECHANICAL pre 1990 CARS AND ALL 998 NON GENUINE - Mini Spares

Now i haven't as yet removed the facet so its unplugged but with the engine running the new pump seems to have so much pressure its gushing out of the overflow.    I rebuilt the carb with a rebuild kit and its still doing it!  Has anyone else had this problem with this pump?

I had the opposite problem with one of those pumps - very little pressure.  The actuating arm didn't seem to work on the cam eccentric somehow, I never quite worked out what was wrong but got so annoyed I bought a genuine SU pump to replace it and that one is still workings years later.
