Subject: LG45 Fuel pump
Hello everyone. I've just posted some more photos of my LG45 saloon restoration in the members gallery if anyone is interested

I have a query regarding fuel pumps. My car has a single SU Fuel pumps which looks tiny to me. I have two of these on my 1.5 litre 4 cylinder Aston so can't quite believe that one is sufficient to keep a 4.5 litre 6 cyclinder engine's thirst quenched.

The Burlen website helpfully suggests a double fuel pump (See link http://sucarb.co.uk/carbspec/carburettor/pumps/id/1340/ )
but I don't think a long pump like this would fit in the compartment behind the firewall.

Can anyone shed any light on this. I am tempted to fit two single pumps in parallel.

Many thanks,

David
