Title: MK1 Fuel pump
Post by: jimmyp on 14 May 2005, 12:06

hello
I have put a MK2 1800 digifant engine in my MK1 golf 1300 driver, does anyone know if the Mk1 fuel pump can supply the digifant engine at the right pressure.
i have a mk2 pump but mounting in under the car is a problem i can find enough space.
Cheers

Yes a mk1 gti fuel pump will flow more than enough fuel for your digi engine, fuel pressure will be OK as the fuel rail has a pressure regulator in it that returns excess fuel back to the tank.

Some comparison pics between the CIS Pump and the silly little digi pump.
CIS is stronger, lasts longer and puts out a higher volume per min.

And thats the fuel pressure in bars you are running when you use a digifant Fuel Pressure Regulator.
