Electric fuel pump

[Rumrunner]

I'm tired of each time I go to fire up my RR, (if I didn't run it yesterday,)
it needs to crank over and over to get fuel to the carb.
What are the thoughts of installing an Electric Fuel Pump? Brand? location?
Or do I have another issue? Edelbrock 650.

keep a small bottle with a flexible hose and fill the carb fuel bowl's

also what fuel pump is on the engine there should be a built in check valve to hold fuel in the line for a quicker start after a time of sitting.

others will tell there experience.

Thanks VRD. Keep it simple!

The fuel evaporates much faster from the Carter Eddy style carbs. You could put a rotary style electric pump in to fill the carb then shut it off the mechanical pump will pull fuel threw it. Or prime the carb as said above.

if you had a carter fuel pump you could rebuild it with this.

Have a check valve in my fuel line just before the carb. Running a Holley carb. I do give one pump on the gas pedal before cranking the motor if it has set for a while.

No you got other problems start with carb first .Electric pump is not the answer!

If mine sets a month then it takes awhile. Mine just set 2 weeks and I pumped it once and it fired right up.
