The V8 Owners Forum -

Mounting my facet silver top fuel pump is there any specific requirement as to the orientation of the pump. The ideal place to mount it would mean that the inlet/outlets are pointing down which would suggest that air would not be able to be purged from the system.

I do have the option of being able to remove the pump to ensure the lines are free from air and then mount back?

I mounted a red top when I ran carbs, below the level of the tank with the pump mounted slightly off horizontal eg; about 2 oclock. The inlet higher than the outlet, if that makes sense!?
Cant you turn the inlet and outlet fittingson the pump so they dont point down?
