Fiat Dino Forum (FDF)

Hi All,
First post here, of what will be many more... I am the new owner of a '67 Dino, that has been stored away for roughly 15 years (I'll post photos/info on the car over in the garage section to say hi). My current challenge as I get it road usable again - replacing a non-functional fuel pump. I wanted to confirm what I think is correct - the cylindrical pumps used on the 2.0 Dinos are of the 12V and 6-8 psi variety, correct? I see Superformance has a Facet 7psi listed, but hoping to find something from a supplier in US rather than waiting on another package from the UK... thanks

I've just replaced mine for a Hardi 18812 fuel pump. Reasonable priced and quite likely readily available through many suppliers in the US.
Pressure is 0.38 bar (5.5 PSI) and 130L/min. Other documentation says 0.35 bar and 110L/min but anyhow a good fuel pump with good flow and pressure.
You can run it without the fuel pressure regulator.

+1 for the hardi pump

Any comments about the Facet pump? There are a few types. Which one should I use? 110-130l/min, 5-8 psi for a 2400 is correct?

What do you think of this one?

Facet Red Top should be the right one.

Ok.

Thanks a lot!

Keep in mind that with the Red Top you need a pressure regulator. The Facet is also quite loud, you have been warned

The 2400 has a return line. Do I still need a PR?

Thanks..

When the fuel pump creates too much pressure the needle valves in the carbs can not close anymore with the risk that that the carbs overflow. Better to have a PR in this case. The return line is good when too much petrol is delivered so it can return without getting hot and cause problems to restart.

OK. I'll keep that in mind..

Thanks for the inputs..
