Two questions.
The PO installed an electric fuel pump in addition to the mechanical fuel pump. The electric pump has a switch to bypass it. The PO wasn’t present at the time of the sale and all the info I could get on the trucks history was through his son who was selling it for him. He was sketchy on why the pump had been added and why it could be switched on & off.
Long story short; the mechanical pump started leaking shortly after I bought it so I replaced it. Now the electric pump is leaking and before I replace it I want to know if I should just eliminate it and run with the new mechanical pump. That would be my preferred option.
So the first question is why would they run two pumps at once. Second question is what pressure is optimal for a stock Carter on a 302? Thanks.
