Here you will find typical questions about our pumps.
How should the Facet universal pumps be mounted?
The fuel pump should be mounted with the outlet above the inlet. This will help with eliminate vapor lock issues. Never located the pump so the outlet is below the inlet. Horizontal mounting will not effect fuel delievery performance.
Where is the part number located?
You can find the Facet part number located on Solid Stated and GOLD-FLO fuel pumps stamped on the mounting bracket, with two or three numbers on each side of the bolt hole. This number usually starts with a 40...
The Posiflo and DURA-LIFT fuel Pumps have the full part number dot-peened on the black housing.
Can I mount the pump in my car's engine compartment?
We recommend that you mount the fuel pump no more that 12 inches from the fuel supply (gas tank). All our Electronic fuel pumps will push fuel rather than pull fuel. Some pumps only have suction limit of 12 inches, therefore you should mount as close as possible to the tank.
Where can I get an oil pressure switch?
Our installation instructions for the Low Pressure Solid State Fuel Pumps recommends to also install an oil-pressure switch installed. However due to the fact that this oil pressure switch has been discontinue and is hard to find.
When you install a Facet pump on a vehicle use a source that is controlled by the ignition switch so power is cut off when the engine is off.
