More Pictures to come later

New fuel mixtures tend to be hard on certain rubber seals and other factors involved in sealing some fuel drawing devices. So to be prepared for any such emergency, a back up “switched on” pump (of the right pressure for your original carborator/carborators) could be hidden from view at a location of your choosing.

Why do we bring this to your attention in a wiring harness web site? When ordering your wire harness for the taillight section think about where you would place a electric fuel pump, and ask that a wire for this purpose be built into the harness and pulled out at just the right spot, with enough length, to reach the place you plan to install your fuel pump back up device. You could then have the wire in place to use, or not to use, at your discretion.
