Fuel Pump

In Victor Pages book "Ford V8 Cars and Trucks", Ford compares the 4 cylinder fuel pump to the V8 pump.. "The spring on the V8 pump keeps the push rod against the eccentric on the camshaft and pulls the diaphragm downward. The corresponding member on the 4 cylinder pump was merely for the purpose of keeping the pushrod rocker arm in constant contact with the eccentric on the camshaft. ..... In average driving, the movement of the diaphragm is confined to but several thousandths of an inch. Fuel pump pressure should not be not less than 1 1/2 lbs or more than 3 1/2 lbs at any speed. Pump should prime in 20 seconds or less when engine is cranked with starter". ..B. |
