[6pack] Weber DGV Carbs

[michael lunsford]

Bob,
   
  All I know is what this guy said.  If it works for you, the heck with what everyone else thinks.  I'm still going with the stock fuel pump on the 71.  The DPO who put the  pump on just screwed it to the back of the wheel well in the trunk without any rubber washers and the thing echos throughout the car when the key is turned on.  Come to think of it I didn't look at the name on the pump myself, I just assumed that the guy who made the comment recognized it since he is the one who said it was a facet pump.

  Hi,

Regarding the DGVs - NEVERMIND.

Regarding the comment on the Facet pump, tell us more. I've been using a 
Facet "solid state" electric fuel pump for a long time (10+years) and it 
works fine. The only problem I ever had was due to a blown fuse. Actually, 
it wasn't even blown, it was cracked and provided an intermittent 
connection.

But that pump works fine for either DCOE's or ZS 175's, even with 160 HP 
or so. I'm talking about the one that gives 3 psi...

In the case of the former owner having probs, I'd verify that proper fuel 
flow is getting to the carbs. If I was to guess what's going on, I'd guess 
that the outlet from the fuel tank is blocked or something "dumb" like 
that.

The fuel is the easy part of the system.

Now, that electrical stuff... that's complercated.
