Those engines are the best ones for a high school automotive class! Great video, I am going to convert both of mine to this!

The boot should push over the white terminal insulator...push the wires on all the way, then the clip should work

Great idea making a bracket to block off that old mechanical fuel pump and use it to hold the electric fuel pump!! I wish I could come take some classes with you. I have been a Nissan auto master tech for 32 years. I like working on boats in my spare time.

To get the electrical connects done right, you must push the boots on further than he is showing. Once that is done. The clip will fit correctly. Slight modification m8ght be needed to the clip.

Thanks I need to do this this month

Great Idea Sir

Great idea. Try double nut,

You didn't push the connectors on far enough. The rubber boots expand over the the plastic if you push it on harder.

You didn't push the wire connectors on high enough. The boots on the wire goes over the white part, just keep pushing.

Perfect must be sunny where you are, or are you just a firestarter. I want try the same thing with a ported crankcase 2 cylinder outboard engine, but am to scared it will start a fire. Have you seen the electric fuel pumps on lawnmowers yet?

Thanks for a helpful video. I overcame the problem of the clip falling out by drilling a very small hole through the plastic between the terminals and inserting an equally small screw thereby locking the clip into place in the plastic, but can anyone enlighten me as to what the loose small grey cap like part is for? Thanks.

Great video. I'll also fabricate a stand off bracket. Which oil pressure switch did you end up using? did you also end up installing a temporary priming switch, or was the timing for the oil pressure switch quick enough to get fuel up to the carb? Thanks.

What psi do the old stock pumps make? Don’t know if I am going to need a fuel pressure gauge

Carter Electric fuel pump! Got it. Did it keep up when you ran the boat? I have a Mercruiser 3.0 with fuel delivery problems. My mechanical pump is new so I don't know why . Nice weld buy the way. Thanks for sharing.

Ted watched your Carter Fuel Pump Part I and would like to watch Part II. Where is it available? Cannot find it. Lee N

Great video.. Hi got a question what size threading that goes in the pump ?

Great video - Does the pump provide some pressure regulation or does it run wide open all the time, dumping all mu fuel into the engine...?

I install this pump on a 350 Chevy engine on a boat and some times brings gas and then the fuel stops, the pump its running but no fuel come to the glass filter just before the carburetor. what a my missing??

Hi, great video, wondering when part 2 will be uploaded? I’m about to do the same thing and you’ve left me hanging. Hahaha.

I whish that the bracket made to support the fuel pump is for the demo only, with the weight of that pump and the vibration pattern of that engine at high RPM, it will break at the weld bead at the original pump blocking plate. AS a rule of the thumb, any accessorie attached to an engine should be attached in a 3 dimension mode. I've made many conversion of auto engines to marine use and I observed that many brackets made for light duty automotive use are not sufficient for substained high RPM marine use. For the electric, I use a relay that I trigger by a diode array and an override switch, I use the starter signal, the alternator diode trio signal and the oil pressure switch signal

Could you leave the old pump in place to block hole and mount fuel pump in a different area if you have the room .

What do you do with overflow tube off the carb?

Hello Ted, I installed an electric fuel pump in my 1985 Merc A1 G1 3.0L 140hp. It's running ok but has some issues at times starting when it's hot. Question what is the normal recommended psi for my engine. I think I may have purchased an electric pump that may be too high in PSI. That's why I'm asking what my engine requires. And Thanks for all the great videos.

Just got stranded this past weekend because my clip slipped out after 800 miles of driving. Pathetic design. Good idea sir

What was the part number on the electric fuel pump?

Where’s part two?

Part 2 please boating season is close...

When's the next video in this series Ted?

NO! You can't mount it upside down. Says so in the information.

Not impressed with the quality of those carters...plenty of issues
