    Will this work ?

    Anybody body know if an 89 fuel pump will fit right in place of a stock 87 fuel pump - like does it mount the exact same or does the newer pump fit in differently into the carbed tank ?

    Also I know there is a couple people who have used there stock fuel tanks in the conversion to efi, How did you do this - how did you run the return line into the tank ? did you make a hole in the tank !

    Please Help - this would help greatly because I planned on doing this, this weekend. I'm gonna stick with the stock tank for now if I can.(till I get some extra $ )

    If someone can give some tips, or even just let me know that this has been done before ? Thanks alott

    Sure does carb has about 8psi - I believe efi is around 30psi
    Thats why I am curious how you can use the carb tank also the extra line

    If your converting to efi, you need to swap tanks to an efi tank, the channels inside the tank are different and I think the whole pump assembly is different.

    the carbed tank can be used but your car might lean out on fuel if the level goes below 1/4 and you go in a curve for a long time...

    Other than that the pumps are almost the same

    CORRECTION
    for the carb settings: 2.6 and 3.3psi
    fuel injected settings:
    85-87 accord the pressure should be 33-39psi
    88-91 accord 36-41 psi.

    well maybe that was part of my problem becasue my carb setup was pushin 6-8 psi
    and I have never even checked the stats on the efi press. I was just going by what I know - I had to change my dodge colts pump and it was around 30 psi so I was just estimating ya know !:p

    I wonder why the 88-89 has more pressure ?

    It makes 10 hp more, due to compression and the intake valving.
