convert manual pump to electric?

[wrenchbender140]

I've got a 97 PSD, and have just replaced the manual fuel pump again, it only lasted 3 months.They have all been carter pumps.

Is there a more reliable pump than carter?

Has anyone converted 97 or later from the manual operated fuel pump to electric pump? I'm tired of changing this pump.

[wrenchbender140]

No, I haven't tried a dealer pump. Does anyone know if the dealer pumps, are Carter brand?

[Jarrod B]

where have you been getting the pumps from?
how much were they?
was it from carter's web site?

If you search around, I'm sure I've seen guys running a electric pump off a SD

I seen a write up on it not to long ago. Dual electric pumps.

Beans, Swamps and DIY SD set up is the way to go. And yes Ford pumps are Carter pumps.
