What sort of electric fuel pump is needed for a carby L28?

A Carby L28 should be between 3-4 PSI I think the old Nissan Bluebird or Pintara uses an electronic fuel pump which is suitable. Most 240z's have the wiring in place to run an electric pump.

So where would you put it - at the back near the tank or in the engine bay?

3-8psi @ approx 4l/min from memory.

 

put the pump @ the back with pipe coming out of tank straight into the pump then back into the line.

 

make sure wiring is isolated/fused as these chew some amps, also for safety. also make sure its wired only when ign key is ON not acc as it will piss u off.

 

dont use anything over 8psi on su's id even recommend no more than 6psi for the su's as they cant hold fuel back very well.

better to use a universal type like a facet, better new also and allows you to use any size fittings on the in and out, and costs about 70$ new from memory + fitting i think were 4$ ea.

 

dont bother with used pumps as the last thing you want is to be stuck somewhere with no fuel pressure.

 

I also recomend running the line through the stock mech pump, as u use the elec pump to prime the mech and also acts as a failsafe if the electronic pump shits itself, still have a mech pump able to suck through the facet style universal pumps as they are 1-way ie can suck through them, like a check valve!!!! works well for carby, as you have pressure before you turn the key!.

RX 7 Fuel pumps where commonly used on zeds.

Probably very hard to find now, but you could try Allmaz in Clayton.
