The rotary fuel pump from a Rabbit is for a FI engine and does not have a built in pressure regulator.The regulator was seperate and built into the fuel Dist.It will make way to much pressure for carbs.

What are the concevinces of running it dry? I probably
did that when I had my gas tank out , I had some
problems coming back from Houston yesterday ,

electronic injectors.So I guess
it doesn't make a lot of difference as long as it is
changed on a timely
basis.Just don't run it dry.

I run a rotory fuel pump .does it make any difference if you place the fuel filter between the gas tank and pump or pump and motor?
