I propose fitting a secondary pump to a BN2 (neg earth) using an SU + Fedtro with a changeover switch The simple option is to run them in series . Is there any reason not to do this.ie loss of pressu

Keith, I have used a backup pump in series with a negative earth SU in my BJ8 for 10 years. It works fine. I also have a switch to select either pump on, or both off. The latter provides some additio

I too have used a basic electronic pump from a local auto parts store in series (between the tank and the SU pump) for about 10 years. No issues whatsoever. I finally needed it last summer on a drive

I'm not sure if running them in series is the best way to go. Before I went to a single Carter fuel pump in my race car, I used two SU fuel pumps plumbed in parallel for many many years, without any

I do understand why you want to put them in series but if you accidentally switch them on both you have double the fuel pressure. Better fit them parallel with an electrically operated valve (4) bef

Just put a new one in and do a bi-annual maintenance and that should be fine. Why double the problems. There are other Healey areas that need your attention. Mark ____________________________________

Mark, for anyone who drives their car long distances frequently, as I do, having a backup fuel pump installed is a great comfort. A failed or balky fuel pump is one of the few items that can stop you

I plumbed two SU's in parallel with separate toggle switches. SU's have check valves in them so fuel cannot flow thru the non-operating pump in reverse. There is no need for electric isolation valves

I agree there normally is no absolute need to fit the electrically fuel valves, however the valves in pumps themselves have proven not to be fully fail proof either, thus the installation of the isol

So if facet pump 2 [nearest the carbs] fails for whatever/any reason, facet pump 1 [in series and nearest the tank] is able to pump through the failed facet pump 1? This means that pump 2 would have
