Hi All
I want to fit an electric fuel pump to my lwb 1300 what's a good market one, also what alterations do I need to do.
thanks   

I used a Huco pump as recommended by Euro Carb (for my twin dellorttos)

Very quiet and had no problems at all.

Search 'Stoneleigh 2015' and look on page 9 and you will see great advice and help I got when my electric pump had issues on my MantaRay.

i tok Chad's advice a couple of yearsago and bought a Huco to replace a cheaper one that was on its way out after less than a year
Still going strong

There are plenty of others people use that they have found reliable

Consider also fitting some sort of inline fuel pressure regulator too   

I use a filter king one, but there are some cheapies about too 

A sucker pump is better as it goes near the engine so less pressurised pipe, there are many pumps around my gold facet lasted 5 years of daily use and was well rotten when it failed.

Ideally you need a fuel pump relay or oil switch so f the engine stops the pump cuts out in the event of and accident although I will admit to 30 years of wired live off the ignition with no roblems.
As said depending on pump pressure you may need a regulator although a standard vw pump runs up to around 4 psi.

hehehe this is one of those subjects where you get so many views    I remember scratching my head in a bemused manner for hours.  In the end I went with a solution which I might not of used now do now but at the time was great.   I bought a rotary pump like this https://www.vwheritage.com/shop/AC1273193/rotary-fuel-pump-3-5psi-30galhr-12v/

At the time there was an offer on and it came in a bundle with this https://www.vwheritage.com/shop/AC127219/safety-cut-out-relay-kit-for-electric-fuel-pumps/  and at the time was only a couple of pounds more that the pump so a bargain.  This CSP kit came with great instructions that even a total wiring novice could follow.

Why would I think twice now ?.... as Snoopy said it does mean more pressurised fuel lines so not ideal.  I also decided to upgrade all my fuel lines at the time to Ethanol rated on Chads advice and this was a good call as some of the old ones were not in the best condition and being under pressure could have failed.

But to be honest its worked fine and never cause me any issues.  If I was doing it again and the offer was on would I do it again.... maybe ....If it fails I may go for another solution.  Worked well with my Dels and gave enough pressure though I did go down the filter king route as well just in case.

Krug, I've got one of those rotary pumps it's fitted at the front end of the buggy under the tank, its a low pressure pump and i don't have  pressure regulator, been running it for about 3k miles with no problem on a 32/36 weber

A stupide question, but when fitting a fuel pump I take it you blank off the standard fuel pump with a blanking plate.
cheers

yep, removed the old pump and fitted a blanking plate

Thanks for advice just have to choice a pump know

I've still got a mechanical fuel pump , told they cab produce up to 12 psi. Just fitted a Malpassi regulator for the 1.5 -2 psi my Solex 40/44s(Kaldrons) require. Not tried it out yet 

Just a quick one......any particular reason you want an electric pump?

In my case (am also swapping to electric) one of the key reasons is to use the outlet from the mechanical fuel pump block off for additional breathing. My engine really does need all the breathing it can do.

Cheers Andy......altho the question was mainly aimed at the OP!
