Default Re: using the stock mechanical fuel pump with electric

Rance. I installed a 6v flow through pump on my '46 Coupe, for the same reason you want to. I only run it if the car has been sitting for a week or so, and rarely after the car has run. There are several suppliers, so just google the P/N shown in the attached picture to source a supplier. If you have a stock + ground, then red goes to ground, and black to power supply. I used a on/off toggle placed under the lower lip of the dash and fuse the circuit. Some will suggest to install and inertia switch to shut the pump off in the event of an accident, but I don't leave the pump on so I didn't install the switch. The piece above the filter in the picture is the inline fuel filter.
