    24v inline fuel pump

    I used a digital volt meter to determine which hole of the plug was positive or negative. Yes, I did use a bullet connector and simply inserted it into the original plug.

    24v inline fuel pump

    I took a look at it today. It looks like my pump is 1/4” npt (Male). I used an adaptor on each end, that goes to compression fitting. I cut the original copper fuel line and inserted the whole pump and adaptor assembly into the section I cut out. It’s still working perfectly.

    fwiw, Airtex manufactures almost all of the brand named pumps you will buy.(Except Facet) The in-tank pump flows about 3 times the volume that the engine needs at full load. As I said, this particular truck ran like poo without a functioning in-tank pump(a sign of something else weak). But...

    24v inline fuel pump

    I have one I put on a truck a few months ago. It does not seem to be enough. This truck did not run well without the intank pump(to begin with). I used an Airtex E8135.
