I would like to add that there are two types of SU pump. Long pull
and short push or short pull and long push.<br>
This is to facilitate fitting the pump at the front or rear of the
car.<br>

<div>I wasn't aware that Triumph offered and electric
alternative but if appearance is important then possibly any
round-body Lucas pump of the era would suit.</div>

<div>You'd want correct polarity and most models (genuine SU)
are now available in an electronic version as well as the
original points variety. I think new ones will run about $200
or so.</div>

<div>But since they were usually mounted somewhere hidden (MGs,
Healeys, Jaguars) no one is likely to ever see it.</div>

anyone know the manufacturer and model number of the
optional electric fuel pump Triumph sold for the TR4? And
any thoughts on how crazy it would be to find and fit one? I
care too much about (the appearance of) originality to go
with a modern unit. A vintage one would be fun, and I’m
hoping it might help with cold-starting woes. If I’ve not
run the car for a couple of days, it takes a very long time
for it to turn over, and it sounds to me like it’s because
it takes a long time to get fuel to the carbs. Once it’s
running, it’s fine. And starting up after a day or two
doesn’t take nearly as long.<br>

Thanks.<br>
